Cord here in So Florida since day one we have put Caster wheels and "Spindled " The Molds on Trunnion's.It allows for changes in the line and in smaller shops the tooling can be rolled out of the way.

Cord, they actually have a little motor and drivetrain on each mold since they keep moving from location to location. Its cheaper than truck shipping.

(Just kidding!)

Last time I was in the Formula plant in Decatur, IN, I noticed that their molds were on wheels (dollies) too.

Did someone rebadge Cattitude's boat and not tell me about it. I thought Patriot Games was a Pantera and not a Cig?
