Hello Todd,
I am using the term in the Joe Crea plan meaning the counterweights on the larger bins is between the
supports not outside as in the smaller ones. the photo here shows that so are there would have to be
slots on the bottom of the floor of  bin outside the bin itself to allow for the movement of the
counterweights. Hope that clears up what I want to work out. Thanks for any help. Paul R.
