The Troll® Panel Handler


Abstract of Invention: Ergonomically handle heavy building panels like drywall, cement board, plywood, etc.
Detailed Description of Invention: The Troll® Panel Handler Model 49 offers significant ergonomic improvements over other solutions on the market in handling bulky, heavy building panels such as drywall and plywood. The Troll® Panel Handler Model 49 lets the user to ROLL the load rather than have to carry it (up to 300 lbs). Patented dual wheel and off-set shoe design means that the weight of the load holds the tool in place against the board. Once the panel is loaded onto the tool, the user can simply roll it where needed and never has to do a dangerous full trunk extension to lift the load. This is a serious improvement over other devices that require the user to hold and physically carry the load or in some cases still require two people to perform the work. It's also a significant improvement over a "panel skate" in that the handle on the Troll® Panel Handler Model 49 allows the user to lift the load when needed to clear work site obstacles. This tool currently sells through specialty tool catalogs and online sites focusing on professional and semi-professional tool users.
