Machine tool mover (moving heavy woodworking equipment).

Giant clamp used to press tall stuff against the ceiling joists; adjustable board jack for oversized stuff.
I'll add "truck tailgate and TC battery mover" to the list when I lack the ability to do those things alone.
Hmmm: If I had four of them, I could lift my whole TC with them - a lot faster and easier than I can with my manual jacks. I could even remove the jacks entirely, crib up under the wings of the TC and a lift table on each corner, and lift the TC on and off the truck, then lower and wheel it around (dangerously) on the lift tables.
