193 forum posts	Oh the luxury of having enough floor space to operate a pallet truck! Actually I do have enough floor space - it's just that it's taken up with too much junk - lathes, milling machines etc. The problem is, every time I clear a little space something new sneaks in to take up even more room. Curse those internet sales! Perhaps I will elevate tidying-up on the perennial list of New Year resolutions. Pero
