I didn't get any pictures of it but we loaded that 600 lb tiller box with the trailer today.  It worked great.  It lifted it and set it down on the trailer very easily. 
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

You could probably sell your services once folks catch wind. You'd se surprised how often folks can use a tool like that.

How about wood stoves? Those are the biggest pain in the arse to move. That bugger would pick it right up nicely. Speedy delivery, Clint McFeely :)

I'll say this.It's a bit cheaper than a tractor and loader bucket that's for sure.

That's very cool, Clint!  Sounds like you'd do well with an inversion table, too.

I hadn't thought about moving wood stoves or renting out my services.  That's an idea.  I thought it would work good for pulling T posts out of the ground.

Good job! Soon you'll be out of sewage and into metal work. Food for thought where you punch the hole through the tube and have that Bolt probably a good idea to get a grade 8 Automotive Bolt. regular soft steel bolts you find at the hardware store you'd be amazed and how quickly that hole in that tube will wear right through it. Another option is to drill a bigger hole and weld in a piece of round tube so puts the weight evenly on the bolt and not in a cutting shearing action. You may have already done that but just a thought
