It's a freaking piano dolly. Rents at the local Rental World for $7.00 a day.

It's not exactly inventing the wheel DAVE !!!!

Trying to get free advertising and losing customers in the process is not a good way to do business.

I'd better not build my bumper - Dave's feelings may get hurt

Did not see Dave as a Forum Sponsor

Did he have a patent? I see that you used a different size screw than Dave. Now it's different!

I built one of these last year, painted it black, and covered it with black auto carpet. It's the best cheap way to store a top that I've ever seen. Great thread.

Is it ok to have the 4DR top just standing up in the air without any type of support? Especially in warm weather.

Riptyd - nice write up. just finished making my frame and will be transporting to my warehouse (work) to store my hard top on it. i have a little foam rubber with adhesive back so i'll be using that to cover the 'hit points'.

thanks for the idea. cheers.
