johnson bar

[stan kern]

recently i sold a heavy drum sander and the guy that picked it up brought
a J bar or johnson bar to lift the sander and i placed a cart at the other
end and it was easily moved to the back of his truck .
I decided then and there i had to make one of these ,so this is my version
overbuilt a bit but it does work

[Bruce Page]

Nice job. I had one of those wack me on the top of my head once. Made my eyes water!

[Art Mann]

Nice, but I think I would have labeled that particular tool as a "Kern" bar. ;)

never thought of that,maybe on the other side.It has a lot of leverage

How much weight would be on the casters and what are they rated at? I like it for sure!
