Another way to move a large machine - be it a CNC mill, lathe, or other piece of heavy equipment. \r
\r
See my other video showing how to move equipment with a reach forkliftt. In this video, we use a towtruck to load a Mori Seiki SL-1 lathe onto a trailer. The advantage to this method - its very cheap! Local towtrucks can be hired for about $100 because it takes less than an hour to do the loading. \r
\r
The disadvantage - towtrucks are not able to move a heavy machine into or out of your garage and cant reach very far. They are also have a limited lift height, so you cant load a tall flatbed truck this way.\r
\r
My other video shows the advantage of doing it the other way - with a reach forklift - that it can reach into your garage and grab or place your machine.\r
\r
Ill be posting another video soon that shows how I use my shop made machinery skates to get the equipment into and out of the garage.
