What else do you do with forks besides lift pallets?

[dragoneggs]

Was moving some flower pots with my forks... threw a scrap piece of plywood on the forks making it a nice flat wide shelf to move multiple pots and other stuff at the same time.



And no I didn't fill that wheelbarrow by hand. Used the FEL bucket to fill it with potting soil that I had to move off the driveway to get ready for a seal coat.

Unroll the biggest dang roll of wire/cable I have ever dealt with. I think it was 450 MCM alum x2 plus a slightly smaller 3rd for the neutral:

"Unroll" triggered a memory of my sod unroll with the block forks and a bale spear:

Yeah, I don't know how dragon gets any work done.....if I lived there I'd have a comfy chair parked right behind the greenhouse, and prolly never move from it! :laughing:

Moving tree tops left by loggers.

Breaking in a new stove outside.

The new paint off gasses while curing during the first couple fires.

If done inside, you have to ventilate the house because of the fumes.

Forks came in handy for moving the stove away from the house to do the break in and move it back again.

They say there are no stupid questions, but silly one there are...Forks are probably the number 2 accessory for the loader. We use ours to move pallets, a bench with plywood, saw horses, lift vehicles, move trailers with an adapter, used to use it to reach high places until we build a cage, unroll maple sap mainline (pipe), move logs when if it's just a few and the grapple is not attached, move lumber, move sap tanks (especially in the spring), and so much more.

Sometimes you don't know you need more stuff until you have it on hand and find a new use for it.
