Look Out Below

So here’s one from the “While-You’re-Here-Could-You-Just…” Department.

I get hired to build things, but I’m often asked to do other stuff. In this case, it was move something. And by “something” I mean “the most massive piece of furniture ever.”

Seriously, it’s a media center, and I think it was made from lead. Anyway, I would have given my eye-teeth for a set of Forearm Forklifts but didn’t have any. I did have a hand truck (and I encourage you to buy one of immediately if you don’t already have one), which is ideal for loading tools on jobsites.

Anyway, my tip of the day is this: When moving tall furniture, look on top. And by “look on top,” I mean “get on a ladder and look on top.”
