Hi Brad, All, Some technician friends of mine at another school purchased a gurney which is used by copier salesmen and repairmen. Probably more expensive than the wooden dolly which has been discussed. But it is designed to be pushed into the back of a van or truck, you press a button and the wheels and legs fold under the gurney as you push it into the vehicle. There are different makes of these, so what's on top will vary by maker - some have carpet, some have thin rubber. There would be no reason why one could not attach perhaps a piece of good quality plywood to the top to form a stable flat workbench. And there are different sizes as well. The casters are sturdier than these on this dolly too, so thresholds are not as much of a problem. I was a copier salesman in a former life, and was very familiar with the two or three gurneys our company had. I think they would work great. They're fairly expensive, maybe as much as $1000, but should last you two lifetimes and then some. Just another idea.
