There are lots of these available in the USA. All the sites that I visited say “shipped from the factory”. i would assume that means China and delivery will be a slow boat.

Here’s an IG post getting my sled off the dolly. Apologize for the chitty video as that is all I got. The second video didn’t turn out so I guess I’m not real good at multi tasking. Anyway, it was easy-peasy and no glitches. No help required and the deck is all that it is cracked up to be. Thanks to Tim at TuffLift.net down in Idaho.

my question is how did you get the sled on the dolly
Arnold, I couldn’t operate in our new house like I did in the house I built in Elkford. So I had to come up with a plan. The dolly was the same height as the deck on my 2013 F350 so I could drive the sled off and onto the dolly. Then I could roll the dolly into the garage, place it against the wall, and roll the second sled underneath it.
I don’t know about the nick name that Tyler threw out, but I like to think as myself as being creative in my problem solving.

with all his money he probably has a forklift in his garage right SUPER DOUG
I live within my means and with the money that I got from the sale of the Elkford house, I was able to buy a newly built contractor spec home and the garages are like having an F150 and trying to put a sled deck on it for 2 sleds. Too small for a guy with toys!

when we built our new house I told the wife I was not having a single car garage again I like to do all my own repairs on my autos and toys so I built a 900 sq. foot shop heated and now with all my toys could use a bigger shop it never ends but it is nice to have it

If I could have, I would have.
With a contractor pre built house, I didn’t have much of a choice. We didn’t get everything we wanted in a new house (down sizing was at the top of the list) and the size of the garage was one of the concessions.
BTW, aren’t we all one of a kind?

Dry run today to load the sleds and work out any kinks that arise. Went quite well as long as I park in front of the garage door properly (I have marked the concrete for the best spot). Don’t know why this is out of focus. Guess I have to re-learn my Canon camera.
