OK, my ill-titled post earlier here is getting at this: does anybody have any info. about wheeled gizmos to help you handle drywall or plywood sheets more easily alone?
Awhile back, and I think it was here, I got the name of this thing somebody had bought to use in their shop and also outdoors. I’m checking back to see how it worked out. The thing, and I’ve found it for sale around the internet, is called a “Trojan DC-9 Dolly-Cartin’ 2 Wheeled Clamping Cart.” It’ll clamp up to 9″ of thickness of sheet goods. I did see a picture of it being used inside a shop.
Any info.??

Try google? Or a skate board and a c-clamp.

that thing is spendy
2 skate boards suited up with sandbags, and a coule of looong bungee cords
I have this and like it. See it in action at the Eurekazone on this You-tube. I am not pushing EZ, but the loading thing Dino shows in this is pretty darn cool and could be adapted or emulated. He is using the Troll to move the sheet goods. It even works as a handle to place items on or off a truck.
HF has a pretty nice handle to carry sheet goods for very few bucks.

A simple handled carrier makes things way easier. You can use a C clamp on plywood. I use a carrier from Lee Valley Tools and it works great! See http://www.leevalley.com/wood/page.aspx?c=2&p=32088&cat=1,43456,43389
