Kreg,
A couple of questions
1 what type of rig do you drive
I drive a Semi truck ( well that is what I need) I drive a ford 3/4 ton extended van
2 do you setup/ break down everyday
it depends on the job, this counter top job should have been one day, but have to go back today for couple of hours, i was able to leave set up. usually I can set up and leave it till done, most jobs that I will need double mft will be 1-4 days
3 what do you Haul in every setup
kapex, several systainers with all my festools etc a systainer port that is connected inside the van, ct midi or ct22, drills batteriers etc ladders. it also depends on the task, most of my task are custom built ins. I usually make parts at my house shop, cut up, dominos boards, pocket holes, shelf holes. then load it up and go to the job and put it together my van is usually pack pretty good
where do you most often setup outside, garages, occupied space in the home?
I usually set up in their garage, this job I am in the dining area kitchen due to this is a rental and had room and because it SNOWED and they do not have a garage. if weather is nice or summer time spring etc, I will set up outside in the drive way if pretty level and then if need to be kept over night then pull it in the garage.the reason I ask is i have a Great idea for a 2MFT wheelbarow cart but as I have no MFT's i am too lazy to build it or even Sketchup it.
The first (best) IDEA is a bottom plate (steel or Al) with 20mm plugs in the mft spacing ans a third that accepts a thumb screw on each side to lock the mft down to the front is a wheel allowing the mfts to lay flat on their sides but when tilted roll. the top has a plate with a handle setup. you bolt the wheel assy and the handle assy to opposite corners of the MFT before you break the first one down then add second when they standing sideways. the units are now wide enough to be stable, and you can roll it to the work area.
[glow=red,2,300]Wheels so you can tilt it up and wheel it with a good size wheel would be great, the only thing with wheels is the terreen we have to deal with, steps, dirt etc. but it would be great so the table will be tilted up and the wheel could go on the corner[/glow]If anyone wants to build one PM me and i will call you and discuss the concept more fully.
