Moving a building with Harbor Freight 10 inch pneumatic casters!

This is footage from 2012 and 2013 and a combination of two building moves using pneumatic casters from Harbor Freight. I remade this video mainly because the old one used copyright music.

I'm moving a 14'x16' building that is probably close to around 4,000lb. At the time I had estimated closer to 2,000lb, but based upon the damage to the wheels and the size of jack required, in retrospect I think it's closer to 4,000lb.

I used Harbor Freight pneumatic casters for moving the building. In the first half of the video I used 12 casters. In the second I used 16 - all swivel type casters. I will say the tires themselves did not survive well, but the hardware holding them did fine.

I later tried filling the tires with "Great Stuff" but that did not work out well. (assymetrical and non bouncy) If Harbor Freight sold these wheels with foam rubber filling I think they'd be fantastic for moving small to medium sized buildings.

Here are the casters I used:

Note that although a distribution of points will handle a large aggregate load, that is based upon all points having equal contact. Loose earth, mud, rocks, tilt, etc. can all change the contact of points. That is likely the reason for the tires being damaged during ths project. Even with 16 casters every single one of them leaked afterwards.
