FAT300 as a Forklift


 

Anyone have a Felder FAT300 ? Can you use it as a forklift?


Eventually I will be getting a Quincy QT-5 60 gal compressor.

Im going to need to move it around a couple of times until the

CNC router arrives mid summer.

I thought of this wild idea of using the FAT300 table as a forklift.

I cannot fit nor maneuver an engine hoist and a pallet jack does so much.


FAT is capable of 660lbs according to the manual & website.

The QT-5 is 460+/-lbs. I would raise it maybe a inch so it doesnt fully

tip over and hopefully be able to roll it around. Maybe some extra strapping

to go along the bottom so it stays straight?


I've drawn up an idea. Tell me if this will work please.

Keeping most of the weight towards the pump area.


I dont like waiting for others for help and rather do it myself

even if it's 3am on a sunday.


See here:



Open to many suggestions.

oh, Those are 2x6's laying across the frame.

They will be bolted with the 2x4's


Thanks all

Ronnie
