Need some ideas on backhoe stand for shop.

[fcamillieri]

I used some HD furniture dollies (3) with a couple of 2x10's laid across 2 of them for my CK20 BH, works great on a cement floor. I strapped the bucket to keep it from settling. Now I can push it out of the way. Cheap and easy.

thanks Starman,Ya it,s very stable.If you look at the second pic you,ll see a hook on the boom (that came factory) that holds it up.I have a small ratchet strap across the outriggers or they would settle to the ground.

Jeff - Lil43 , Did not notice that hook before ,I think that is the first
thing I need the keep the arm from leaking down on the ground .
Then I think I will see if the back hoe will stay up on its own if it is sitting
flat on the shop floor. If not I may have to enclude the bucket
on some sort of Tee shape frame to hold it up on metal casters.
Thanks Lee - Starman
