I stopped by TSC store (Tractor Supply Co.) and saw that they are now carrying Hydraulic Table Carts. The one they have is a 330 lb capacity model for $149. It is similar to the Harbor Freight model but with an improved lowering mechanism and a folding handle. They also have both a solid deck and an open frame furniture dolly. I have two of each. They are very handy to put 32" and 35" sets on so they can be moved around to shop. >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Bill Boyd" <billstvs@xxxxxxxxxx> >To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> >Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2003 9:17 AM >Subject: [TechAssist] Hydraulic table cart > > > > > > This is a heads up for those who are interested in a hydraulic table cart. > > Cummins Tools, the traveling tool sellers, have a 660 lbs cart for $99.99. > > This past Sunday they had a one day sale at our Civic Center.
