Really.  One can certainly get hurt.  An old Logan 400 Hobbyist lathe 
probably
weighs less than an engine block, but I can still imagine that if one 
were to have
some sort of incident while loading it into the back of a Honda CRV 
there might
be some discoloration and bruising that takes almost a week to heal, 
perhaps a few
nearly healed over scratches in the skin by now.

One needs to be cautious when single-handedly trying to do the work of 
three men:
Larry, Moe and Curly.
