You're going to have to join the forklift club yourself sooner than later.

I agree as a forklift makes life much easier when you like to buy heavy stuff. I would be lost without one and all of my material handling equipment.

I was thinking about having one of these installed?
Is the need enough? Or does the want suffice?

I looked up the weight 774 lbs!!! no wonder my shoulders are burning.
Planning on how to move it now. Thieves stole the fuel line off his forklift  .

Ok well it may be a while before i get it home so here is some pix of what it is .
These are not of the machine in question but pix found on the web.
The machine itself is a Sellers #4 drill bit grinder.

It`s such a well made and solid machine , there will definitely no chatter when grinding the bits for sure.

First one I ever used was a big Carlton to drill 1-1/8 holes in big plates.

Well i got it home yesterday and today i cleaned it greased and oiled it.
Think i'm going to leave it as is , great patina  really suits it.
I`ll look at the wiring tomorrow see if it needs replacing then reassemble and call it good.
