Thanks everyone who put in their advice, sympathy, and commiseration

FWIW, I  also made  a grand tipper similar to the "horse" but I
consider an improved model I made with plywood  sides and 2x6 width.
It is lighter, less likely to scratch, easier to position and has no
long adjusting screw. Also it does not screw into the keybed like the
new one advertised. Best of all it cost about $20 to build if you
don't find the materialsfor free.  I was considering doing an article
for the PTGJ on "solo moving without sweat" if there is an interest.
Let me know.
