couple weeks ago brad b posted on tool talk about unloading pallets with his scaffolding and chainfall. well....the safety police sure gave him a what for. but they offered no solution...soooo....guess who came to the rescue!!! had this old yale automatic forkift at the farm, and donated it to brads cause (should keep him from gettin hollered at, least for a while.) he and his son drove down from upstate new york to pick it up at the shop. we had a secret meeting over coffee...discussed series-parrallel batteries (john t. the fork lift was the culprit, not a golf cart), and swapped stories. had a great visit with brad and his son!!! heres the pics.
forklift and charger waiting to go...(pay no attention to the car batteries wired up on the lift truck)

winched the truck on the rollback and set it on the trailer outside, then backed in the shop for the tie down.
