TECH: Rolling cab stand

Hi guys,
I thought I'd share this quick build of a rolling cab stand I built a while ago. I was parting out an old F6 truck and wanted some way to not have the cab taking up space and being difficult to move around. So I devised this nifty little stand to sit it on and make the behemoth a bit more portable. I've even managed to draw up plans and scan them to a pdf file if anyone's interested. I'd be happy to email them on request. It was designed to allow my cherry picker to roll underneath, which is important when the cab is hanging from said picker and you want to set it down somewhere in particular. It's a couple pieces of wood, some brackets, nails and wheels. Nothing fancy, but it sure works good.

Enjoy! :)

PS, the cab is available for sale if anyone's in need of a solid one and can come by and pick it up.

Nice simple cart. Sure makes them easier to move around....
BTW, your shop is WAY to clean!!
 
If you would not mind can you email me the plans I have the cab off my 49 sitting on 4 blocks and 2 4x4's with no way to move it other than my cheery picker
