Moving Rocks

A lot of our landscaping has been based on moving rocks. There are a lot of techniques for moving them. What I have documented here are two techniques. One involves building your own RockSling (R) Pat. Pend. The other is a cheap way to skid them across a lawn with minimal damage.

RockSling(R) is a registered trademark of The Creative Carpenter.

I designed and built the RockSling (R) in the spring of 2004. Given the number of rocks that we move to landscape the property, there had to be a better way.
