moving tank---"Forearm Forklifts": do they work?
Seen those things advertised on TV---seem like maybe a natural for tank or stand-moving and other problems we run into in this hobby. Has anyone out there tried these things, and do they work as advertised?

I wouldn't attempt using those to go up a flight of stairs but other than that. I know of a couple times I would have found them helpful.

all they do is make it easier to handle, if that's what's your wondering. they don't make lifting easier.
