Back Saver

Post by PeterH »

Last year I damaged my back, and since, have not been able to lift large loads.This is what I put together to move my larger trees around the back yard.It also enables me to work on the trees at several heights.
I will be putting a wood top on it.

Regards,

Peter

Look after yourself Peter! I notice that there's no thought of growing smaller trees...

Best of luck,

Gavin

PeterH - sorry to hear about your back! Neat, inventive solution and lovely tree.

Now meet another inventor - PeterH meet AlpineArt. Alpine meet Peter.

AlpineArt is quite the inventor! Not only did he invent this turntable - he recently started turning a whole friggin’ island within a stream into a range of buxus bonsai.

Tending bonsai teaches me patience.
