Sheet mover

[SeanP]

Just thought I would share how I move sheets around the shop, it seems to work well for me, I can move a 3mm 8'x 4' around with ease.
I cut down the base plate on the sack truck to 1'' wide and added the frame with a piece of wood across for grip.

You smarter then the average bear thanks for sharing

Nice idea for sure

Good idea. What's the thickest you dare to move with that setup in a 4x8 sheet?

Um probably around 5mm to be honest.

Thanks for that Sean,

sometimes the simplest ideas are the hardest to think of. I'm useless at thinking of simple solutions.

I can't use that idea at present because I load my table end on, no access anywhere else, but that trolley idea can be applied to just about anything, good one.

Just thought I would add to this,,,the next step after the sack truck mod,,,,it's taken me a while to think how to do it but think it will do the trick, loaded 3 x 3mm sheets together (8' x 4') and it passed.

Video here will explain all

This is a great idea but my table has the gear tracks on top not on the sides, I don't think this will work with my set up. Thanks for posting the pics.

10K Forklift W/10' sheet

I think I have posted this before but here it is again. I built this so that I could end load 4x8 sheets by myself.
