I'm a 66 year old brickie (ex hoddy) I remember when bricks came loose on the wagon . Everyone stopped to unload the 7.000 bricks . No forklifts . Great days . 👍

This is such a great thing such an advancement in that era itself in India till now the bricks are loaded by labor.

Turns out in 2020 us hoddys are still around and still using ladders

[@elliottdebell7783]

Anyone know what the sack trucks are called. Looks like they don’t make them anymore?

[@PhilBoswell]

Is it too late to point out that the main caption is clearly incorrect, as contradicted by the long description: the device is called "Selfstak" as written across it in large letters!

[@MrQuackadoodledoo]

Those other couple of guys must've spent a whole day unloading those bricks
