    The job that I'm specifically building this for is to move 10ft sections of custom made channel 4" wide ,1 1/2" tall, maybe 3/16" side wall. I think it's around 4.8lbs per ft. This setup is more than enough. I put a 10ft section of either 5" or 6"channel 1/4" to 5/16" thick, and it moves on the table with one finger.
