Randy,
The big boys use compressed air pallets. They are amazing to watch move very
heavy machines around a warehouse on these things. It does take a reasonable
smooth flat concrete floor, but they move by fingertip pressure only. If I
ever move again, I will make an air pallet for every machine and permanently
mount the machines to the pallets.

Since there seems to be alot on this subject lately, I'll add this,
spent the weekend moving machines around my shop. Bought a set of
these machine skates from ebay Item number: 350099092584

About 1/4 the price of Hilmans and they worked very well, they were
made in Taiwan (not China; different in my book). A local rigger
wanted $650.00 for the move. Local rental place wanted about $100 for
a set of roller for a day, which would have been about $125 once tax
and insurance fees were added on. And I'm sure I'll be using them
several more times yet. Now I just need a place to store them.

No connection to the seller other than I was a customer.

Bottom of the grinder (B & S Techmaster 824) was not at all flat so
rolling on pipes was not an option.

Thank You,
Randy
