Hey I Made A New Tool To Help Us All

Do the wheels go over obstacles?

I tested it over lawns, cords, sills, hoses, rocks, sidewalk cracks and more. I tried every tire on the market and they all had failures except the one I have on it. The heavier you load it the more obstacles you can get over. It is quite amazing. I did it for us.

Good luck with it.....so are you joining the forum to promote it, or are you here as a contractor?

Send a couple out to some of the guys here if it is a good product they will let every one here know. If it is awesome they may even review it on amazon for you. Now if it has problems I am sure they will share that as well. You may want to go to the introductions and let everyone know who yoyu are. Oh and great job in taking an idea to market.

I am a full time builder, tradesman, still working hard. But I think I can help our industry with products that are tough enough to throw around and strong enough to actually work. This product allowed me on many occasion to move a 5 ft high stack of drywall by myself with very little lifting.

Would love for you to try one out. Please buy it on amazon or ebay, being a hard working guy like yourself I cannot give them away. They are durable, you can treat it bad, it still works. I made it for us to save our backs, elbows, arms, and save on labor. My help say all the time, why don't we use invention. It always helps almost every day.

I think you just missed an excellent marketing opportunity. Penny wise, pound foolish as the saying goes.

Interesting. Tell me more about moving 5' worth of sheets by oneself. How many sheets do you load per trip? Does it have a kickstand to keep it from tilting when loading, or how do you keep the corners from leaning on the ground? Just curious about the one-man method. Please walk us through it a bit.

Your reply was not helpful.

I place the load slightly forward away from the builder who is at one end. I lift about 5 pound or so and the panel pal has the bulk of the load. By myself I can carry about 4 8 foot sheets at once but 2 is comfortable. It is very much like how 2 people would carry a panel but the person in back is in charge while the panel pal is doing all the work. I made it non slip so that the items stay put while pushing. I added gliding wheels with strong bearings so that it would last and be smooth.

You realize that this has been around for years, my granite guy has a few of them with kickstands. I had one several years ago for moving laminate tops after seeing my fabricator using them.

The are/were sometimes used to move cast iron sewer pipes on commercial jobs. Also on a larger scale used for moving flooring rolls.

Yes I know. Understood and is not patentable. But it is under 50.00 and it is strong durable and light weight. It rolls through peoples homes and the idea is older than time. However I wanted to make it more versatile, more, easy to see on the job, wont ruin the house I am in. Has wheels that wont spring a flat or are made of steel and more. Like I said. I could not buy what I wanted so I made this to help us all. I think you would like it. I know I do that is why I spent allot to make it right from someone who actually does the work. Many different versions only this one did what I wanted.

Panel Pal,

Charimon suggested you send some out to a few contractors on here to try them out, give their reviews, etc. ( see post #4). Your reply was that you can not afford to give them away. Asked that they buy your product on Amazon.

If you cant afford to send a few of your products out for testing/ review, then I don't think you can afford to be in business. You are missing out on a great marketing opportunity (if your product is actually good and useful). I might be unsure about buying your product, but if I saw a ringing endorsement/ review from a known member here, you bet I would buy it. I'm sure others would too.

You come on here with no other posts, no member introduction, and start peddling your product. That has a feel of a salesman to me.

Your product may be great, and I hope it is, but there is a better way to introduce your product. Just my thoughts.

I cannot reply in a way that I could be of any help. I do not know your website and I do not know your style. I do know that I was interested in getting the word out. So I spent some time replying. I have had some personal messages that were not friendly at all and I do not feel comfortable with the site in general. If the people are looking for advertisers I may take a look at the cost. But Contractor Talk in the tool section seemed like a good place to start some conversation about it.

I do not know Chairmon

Actually you are very penny wise pound foolish. What every online seller needs are good reviews. Your product is easily duplicated with less than $15 and less than 30 min of time. 2 wheels at $6.26 http://www.harborfreight.com/8-inch-x-1-3-4-quarter-inch-replacement-wheel-40598.html
scrap of 2x6 free
12" of axle shaft .
What you need is to get them in the hands of rockers and remodelers and if it is super handy let them rave about how well it works on Amazon, having 15 honest 5 star reviews, by reviewers who have track record of other good reviews. That is why Amazon has the "vine"program. this alone will do more to sell your product than just about anything you can do.
The fact is I don't want your product and was expilcit. Read again the quote.

I think the Troll is better and cheaper. even though the video is disingenuous as every pro knows how to handle sheet goods better than is displayed in it.

Matter of fact you need to make a real world video of it moving hard to handle items through real life jobistes. and get it linked to your amazon page.

Thank you and I intend on it. I am withdrawing from this website due to infringements to all its members. Sorry for the intrusion.
