Lifting/Moving Attachment for a 7 x 12 Jet Saw

I keep my 7" x 12" Jet horizontal bandsaw up against the wall at the end of a car lift. Since it has non-pivoting wheels, they are useless when it comes to swinging the saw away from the wall to use it.

To solve the problem, I fabricated a short piece of 1" square tubing welded to a plate that bolts to the end of the saw. My little floor jack swings the saw out from the wall for use in seconds.

Clever idea of yours. There's a guy on YouTube that did something similar, but he put a lazy susan bearing on it with a bottom plate. I think the item he is moving is a meat saw for his hunting passion. The thing drives and turns like a race car now.
