fork lift delivers

[LCHIEN]

Ha, maybe this should go under projects. I just built five complete pallets to use with my new fork lift.

If you followed the previous thread, of course, you would know they are 1/16th scale pallets.

Think popsicle sticks. and some 3/8 material ripped to 1/4" wide.

Engineers and their scale toys!

Looks like fun!

Are the boxes full of little teeny power tools?

Now Loring, I hope you wern't travelling with your forks in the raised position( second pic). Next you need to build some pallet racks to stack the stuff into. Or how about some scaled trailers to load?

Man, you had me fooled. I thought it was just a really big house!

Cool, Loring! I want one.

Do you see anyone driving?

Actually I was looking around the shop for some 1.5" dowel or even plastic pipe to cut approx 2" long which would be a scale 55 Gal drum... no luck.

Yeah, I should have put a quarter or something into one of the pictures for reference.

If you hadn't said it was a toy and enlarged the second picture, you could have said you and Rod, went in on a forklift and storage. (clean as his shop)

The pallets look great, love the attention to detail.

Be sure to observe best safety practice, like Klaus:

Nice. I saw those forklifts on ThinkGeek and wanted one instantly. Now I even have a project to plan for. Thanks!

[LCHIEN]

think geek has them for $25 + $8 S&H. Total $33
If you go to ebay, search for R/C fork lift
ad you'll find a dealer shipping from from Hong Kong direct for $8 + 15 S&H. Total $23
they send it registered mail thru HK post and USPS, you need to have someone sign for it (should have had it sent to the office).

Nice. I may pick one up there. I work from home and am self employed so once I have a delivery date, I can be here. Heh.
