I pretty much finished my vertical wood cart and lift. mostt my material is stored on edge in the few blank wall spaces I have. I made the cart and lift to mostly handle heavy sheets that I need two people to lift. I will use the cart but not the lift for lighter sheets. I made both out of scrap thats why the lift is so many pieces bolted together. I did not want to use 1/2 a sheet making it. I wanted to use vacuum but I could not afford it right now.
I remade the cart to make it more stable and lighter. the 45 ramp makes it easier to load but i need to line it with plastic as it is too hard to slide a sheet on it. I am debating on putting a handle on it to move it when it does not have a sheet on it. I will also make a hook that holds the sheet against the back. I have to remake a flip holder for the top of the sheet lifer but I ran out of time. got to get the power cord out of the way and a few other details but it is mostly done. so 4 swivel wheels on the corners. but I am debating on putting the main wheels as swivel and the smaller ones as straight so I can push the cart sideways.
