Will be interested in the end result!!!! Please post pics.

I'm a bit concerned if the hoe sitting on those wheels will be able to be moved by hand. Not sure what the hoe in question weighs?

im not sure either... :shocked:

Its not listed and I've asked the dealer... was told "around 1000lbs". Im pretty sure that was just a guess

I built a welding table that weighs around 800lbs fully stocked. It's on very high quality 6" steel casters. It requires the floor to be swept clean before moving. It also requires a pretty hefty shove to get it started rolling.

haha makes me think of my sander. In the background of my pictures there is a 37" belt sander that weighs 1300lbs. The guy I bought it from had welded 3"? poly wheels to the legs... the thing hardly moves on them. I dont even know how they are not busted off yet. Luckily he owned a crane business and we used one to load it on my trailer. Getting it off was another story.

I had some time this weekend to weld up the HF dolly. here is the end results, well kinda - part 2 coming later this week. Was a fun build. I might even paint it... maybe...

Harbor Freight Engine stand. Can it hold a Backhoe? - YouTube

Thanks rider7767 (Tony) for the idea!

I need a better camera, the batteries died halfway through and my wife didn't like the idea of her picture camera in the garage with sparks

thanks

building the backhoe dolly was the easy part... I didn't realize how much time it takes to do the youtube stuff...

A fast computer with a big video card is your friend. LOL
