Hi all.

I've been at it again and made another video. I know some of you enjoy them so here it is.
Got given this pallet truck a while back and it was in a very sad state so decided to do a bit of a restoration. Got some plans for it long term including using it for moving the machines around in the workshop. Got a kinda ingenious idea for some skids to mount onto the bottom of the machines to make evrything super flexable as I don't have a huge amount of space to play with.

Anyway, hope you enjoy!

Cheers,
Tilly

Enjoyed that.

Nice job - got all excited as we have one at work that's actually in quite good nick but all the "tyres" are slowly disintegrating and giving a very bumpy ride and was hoping you'd reveal source of new tyres

Cheers,

I think I just got them off Ebay. Rated at 800Kg each if I remember correctly. Glad you enjoyed it.

Was nice. I love the walk through and "ah, that didn't come out as planned" scenarios.

I think it could only do with the first minute getting some "Knobfeel" noises.

Brilliant - another really enjoyable video, just wish I had a use for such a thing, I'd go and get one immediately!
