    Looking for this type of dolly

    Has anyone spotted one any cheaper than this? Or is this about right?

    Thanks Joe

    LoL, I figured it would pop up sooner or later. I keep forgetting about HF. The closest one's to me are 30-40 miles in either direction. But my old man keeps complaining about buying cheap stuff from there. I can't seem to get it through his head that I could careless if it last 6 months or not. As long as it gets the job done for the time being it doesn't matter.

    I really like the way the one SNJ26 posted is built, that thing's made for some high grade moving, if you've ever used one much you'll know what i mean. My lil flat car looks like a FH special, but it's done a lot of heavy duty stuff itself

    4 casters at Lowe's $39.12

    Rubber floor mat at Lowe's $8.98 (cut it to fit on the board)
    http://www.lowes.com/pd_320875-73825...7C0&facetInfo=

    You'll probably spend $5 on screws/bolts/washers depending on how you want to attach the casters to the wood. You'll probably also spend around $5 on the wood.

    Grand total to build it yourself - $58.10

    Or you can drive to Pa to scranton. I got one leaning on my shed I just drug home. Never will use it. 20 cash. And its fricking sold. I had a 800 boiler on it and it rolled with ease. And the nice thing its not open in the middle, its solid wood with no hole in the middle.

    If you wanted to get a lil crazy you could buy or build something like this piano mover.

    I've got four of those casters laying in a drawer downstairs.

    I was wondering what I could use them for.

    I like the inflatable tires though. So you don't have to worry about debris or sidewalk cracks stopping the wheels and whatever you are picking up fall off and potentially hurt yourself or someone else for that matter.
