Could this be used to move heavy 12 inch by 12 inch concrete step stones?

Yes, the pot lifter works well for anything that's not top-heavy. Concrete step stones are not. When two people are lifting & transporting dense, compact objects whose center of gravity is below waist level--it works well. The only flaw we detected involved tall potted cactus that had a higher center of gravity. Without significantly longer handles tall loads get difficult to manage--because they tip (forward & back, side to side).

Absolutely! The Potlifter came with instructions for how to set it up to lift round pots as well odd shaped things. It would do fine with the step stones. It will still be heavy and a two person job but you will save your back and hands and make quicker work of it all.

The Potlifter could handle the weight, it's the size of the load that might be a problem. Since the lifter is made up of straps, "holding" or attaching it to concrete blocks might present a dangerous problem. If the blocks slipped out of the straps someone would have some really sore toes! Getting the blocks to stay in the lifter would be a real concern for me.

Probably not. This contraption is designed to lift something with a lip (preferably on the upper edge). We bought it to move a LARGE planter, with no lip, before realizing this "gotcha". Consequently, I don't believe that we have ever used it. If you're near Lincoln, AL, you could borrow it.

Though I have not used it for such, I'm sure it would be possible. The weight would not be a problem, just make sure that you cinch it tight. Be and another person were able to carry an 180 lb. Kamato comfortably.

Hi Cat Lady,The only question would be as to what is the weight of the individual stones. If the individual stones are 200 lbs. of less, then the regular PotLifter should do the job. If they are heavier than 200 lbs. then the ProLifter, which can handle loads up to 400 lbs. should be considered. Check out their website http://potlifter.com/index.html to see which product would work the best for your requirements. I am so please with the product because it has taken the difficult and awkward tasks of moving heavy items and made them simple. Hope this helps. DonO

Not really certain but, it's probably not long enough. Try a large and long masonry bit and/or call a local paving stone supplier and ask what they use.

I have not used it for that, but only for tulip bulbs. I would not think it would be adequate, as the hole it digs is small, and, if you try to enlarge it, the bit is not strong enough to resist slipping. Also, the shaft is smooth, rather than square, so it does not produce a lot of torque.

We have 3/4 in crushed stone and it does work if it is fairly packed. It is much more difficult than on pavement. If it was a packed dirt / aggregate road I believe it would be fine.

I don't know. Perhaps if you lay stones/pavers/bricks on it so that it can't be easily moved?

It could, but it is heavy. You might want to consider using a dowel in conjunction with a notched support strip.

Yes. I would use a concrete grinding wheel and a concrete cut off wheel. Both are available at hardware stores.

I don't think this will work, this toll it is made for mechanics, but you can use it to tighten or loosen any bolt, the power in this gun is excellent, I wish I would understand more about your question regarding the " BRICK/ SCULPTURE/OR STONE " work

Absolutely-this is a strong 1/2 drive drill. If you are doing a lot of concrete drilling I'd consider a hammer drill but this Dewalt will have more versatility.

Yes, we used it for treads and risers on stairway with spindles. Have to be a little careful with narrow attachment so as not to gouge or sand uneven

It can, but it will be a matter of speed and pressure to get the desired results. I'm sorry I can't be move specific than that.

I would not recommend it, stone is somewhat degradable. Maybe if you use the coarser side of the stone.

Yes it could however the lift hight is limited and the rails that do the lifting are about 12" wide
2060429
Sure, it would work great for that. Can hold a lot of weight. Very maneuverable.
1170132
Yes it would do the job but I think this tool is much bigger than you need for this task.
991214
it will work.no there is no way to adjust the height except no to push it to the ground and u will probable throw some stones i would think.

I don't know if they will handle that type of loading. Seem to be a little too small for what you are doing
