How to move a Pool table with one person

So I have been redoing our floors here at my house. I have a 700Ib pool table right in the middle of the room and my wife couldn't help move it so I had to think of a way to move it. So I used my sons Tonka trucks on one end.. The one tonka truck is over 26 yrs old and the other is a couple of years ago. Wish our American cars could be tough like these trucks. Thought you all would get a kick out of it.... Enjoy

Well I'm pretty sure when they installed it the box said 715Ibs...

thats great. I used a weight lifting barbell the same way. the bar as an axle and the weights as wheels.

definitely not a 700lb pool table, but still excellent ingenuity

I just boguht a 1000 pound pool table and i have no idea how to get it out of the guys house..... Watching this video makes me angry.

Try doing that with a real professional slate pool table... poor trucks would break

I just lifted one end while my wife put the trucks under the legs. Once they are under it you can move it anywhere. I have already play games on mine with no problems at all. I did have to re-level it, but I am sure it's because I went from having carpet in the room to wood flooring in the room. This was easy and didn't cost me a penny.

Neat. How did you get the trucks onto the legs without any help? Any damage to the table? I've got a similar project and was thinking of using dollies under the legs instead of using toy trucks. I'm just afraid of damaging the table in one way or the other. Maybe I'll just let the pro's do it.
