Moving Industrial machines around the shop and outside

[Dave9111]

I like the idea of your tilt hand truck!   That's a lot better than what I tried!!!    I have a hand truck that is aluminum and it converts into a flatbed, but it won't do what your truck does.   The kickstand with wheels is really nice.

Thanks for the idea!

When I moved allot of machinery from one shop to another I learned a trick.   Most machines will "tip" left to right off a dolly.  So I took 2 dollies and used 1" ratchet straps to strap them tight on the machines. One dolly on each leg.  A 12" pine board under both back legs.   I was able to move some really heavy machines that way.  That way I had 4 pneumatic tires on the ground

In a way similar to Toxo, just with 2 dollies involved.
