From: Jim Thompson on 8 Jul 2010 19:50 Home Project, Mechanical Question... Moving 8' and 10' folding tables. It would be nice to have a one-wheel dolly to stick under one end (on edge, while folded-up), so I could wheel them around by myself.

Assuming your arms are too short to allow carrying one between arm and torso (which is how I carry "banquet tables"), consider a roller skate (or, skateboard). (a "hand truck w/ training wheels" will also do the trick but few people have them)

Seriously, those have ball bearing wheels, whirrrrrrrr ... *CRUNCH* ... "Honey, are you ok?

But make sure to get one where the wheels can remain folded sideways (in line) while the shelf is flipped outwards to hold a table. Probably a minor mechanical mod can also achieve that. Nice thing is, these can be collapsed to a size where they fit nicely onto a regular shelf when not needed. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ "gmail" domain blocked because of excessive spam.
