 |
|
Good morning all,
I want to give a heads-up to anyone who may be interested about a sale on trailer dollys from Northern Tool. There's been talk and kidding about moving our Kolbs by hand on the ground, getting old, etc. The dolly I have now I got with my US and the wheels are solid wagon-type wheels spaced very close together. As a consequence, the dolly tends to want to roll on its side when doing a sharp turn.
Northern Tool has an email subscribers only sale for a trailer dolly with 10" pneumatic wheels with a wider, more stable spacing. It's marked down from $60 to $40, plus shipping. It comes with a ball for moving trailers, but it looks like it will be a simple job to remove the ball and replace it with the tailwheel cradle that's on my dolly. I may even try to find a way to alter the cradle so I can "scoop" the tailwheel, rather than lift the tail into the cradle. What's that about getting old?
I'm not sure if it will work if you're not presently a subscriber, but you may want to go to northerntool.com and subscribe for their email promos, because this sale price is good until 3/17.
Getting my FF prepped for flying weather here in PA and find myself frequently whispering thanks as I work, to Don, the genius builder, for putting together such a fine - and beautiful - FireFly. His workmanship is meticulous. A huge thank you, Don!!
