Height of pit at "0"

Unread postby drcurran » Wed Jul 11, 2012 7:32 pm

I don't have a pit available to me, and I need a measurment. I know different pits will have different thickness for this measurment, but I'm looking for an average. At the "0" line how thick is the pit to the right or left of the front of the box. Without a pit to measure I'm thinking something under 30". Any help is most appreciated. Thanks

Dan

24"to 32" inches is about average for most pits not on pallets. Ad 4" for pallets.
