Garrett, I cut a sheet of plywood into three sections and leap-frog them over rough terrain. Pianotek has dollies with pneumatic wheels for this purpose, more expensive than plywood though. D-208 - $195 D-200 - $295 The plywood helps for brick walkways and can be used at the bottom of the ramp for wheels to have a smooth surface while starting up the ramp. Also I have a 4x6 block to place at the threshold and have a piece of plywood traverse the landing. Around here there are a lot of entries with three to four steps, a landing and one step up at the door into the house. It's nice to have a straight shot at this. I use a trailer also, low loading, low overhead. Jon Page At 11:27 AM 3/20/98 +0900, you wrote: >Dear list; >I am in need of information about the following: > > 1. 1.
