Decided to build a carry-all / lift platform with treated lumber. It is 5' x 4' with 3 removable sides, should be approx. 650# when done (should get lighter when wood dries). Copied some ideas from members here on TBN. I will post more when it's done. No safety police please, I know what I should and shouldn't do wth it!

You guys are really trying to get me in trouble! :ashamed: That's what I get for trying to use a pun (man-lift.....>wife-lift) :). My wife hasn't read this yet, but I had a good laugh, we'll see how she takes it. :fiery:

Finished it today, all I need now are my forks (they are getting delivered Monday). Final weight including hardware is 545#, and no my Wife doesn't weigh 545# either! Ha Ha! ;)

Underdog;

Very nice build! Where did you get the hardware on front corners? I've seen these before but, have no idea what they are called to google them?

Thanks for sharing! My 48" Titan forks should arrive next week so, with your permission will be copying your SOL (significant other lift). :)

They are called..."Corner Stake Rack Connector Set". I ordered mine from Trailer Parts Superstore, they come 2 sets (1 LH & 1 RH) 4 pcs. Per pkg. Very fast shipping. I have 48" Titan Forks on the way also, thanks for the compliment.
