    Laying concrete tiles 50cmx50cm, 20 kg each

    Will have to move some 40 concrete tiles. Dont have thumb installed. Any ideas what kind of attachment to construct? Some kind of a pliers with rubber pads which would tighten when lifted?
    Other ideas?

    A few prongs like forks or muck fork, perhaps, to go under them ...... I assume you are just taking them up??
    If it's got tracks, wheels, t*ts, or an engine, at some point it's gonna give you trouble!!

      Yes,

      thought of saving my back. The idea is just to pick the up and move closer to where they will be installed. They are heavy. Not that I could not lift the, but just to use the -15 as I now have it..

        I can move 2' x2' flag around with my 2' bucket on my mini no problem. Just get a corner in the bucket

          Needed to check the dictionary to understand what the word flag means in this context, and found out that you moved flagstones

          Yes, that indeed would be the most obvious case. But since I still have some holiday left, will keep on searching in case would find something to construct around.

            Grapper?

            Any hints of where to ask for a smaller timber grapper in England?

                thanks!

                Even the smaller one weighs 74 kg! Seems to be constructed for pro use.
                Been surfing around and found a finnish equivalent with 47 kgs. Lets see what they reply.
