Previously a long (16') wood rolling
platform was constructed to allow the large 16' doors to be placed
on them in order to work on the doors. Since this platform is not
being used it was very difficult to move as well as to store.
However, we will need this platform to work on the internal light
bars (they are 16' long). Howard and Paul took this platform, cut it
in two sections, each 8' long, reinforced each section, added
casters and now we have two 8' long rolling platforms that can be
used individually or clamped together and used as one 16' platform.
After doing this they worked with others on their projects.

16' rolling platform is cut in half so that they could be stored
easier. Together, the platforms will be used as a workbench for the
restoration of the internal light bars.
