Lever dolly

My mill has been stuck in the entrance of my workshop. Until now I haven't been able to move it into its permanent place. So, I needed a lever dolly (like a pry bar on wheels). Here's my take on building one from scratch.

Since I couldn't see any other videos about making one, I decided to make a video about designing and making it.

Some of the materials are new, but I was able to make about half of this project from recycled steel.

Axle is made from 32mm steel round bar
2 x 6305-2RS bearings
1.5m of 50x25x3mm rectangular steel tube for the handle.
300mm of 50x12.5mm hot rolled flat bar for toe and heel

See the build here:

Thanks,
Craig
