Bertho makes a good point. My forklift has a ground clearance of one or
two inches. It will not tolerate anything but hard surface or it is
instantly buried. But it is surely nice to have around. Having rolled my
Bridgeport,by myself, probably 80 feet on pipes around to my backyard
shop, I can tell you it was a joy to pick it up and "drive "it back that
80 feet last year when I moved my shop back to the garage. By the way, I
hope you have a tall door. That thing looks awfully tall.
