We have the Cab Dolly almost completed. I decided to make it lift side ways rather than end to end that way the whole side is within reach at one time.
We made the hinges out of 3/4 black pipe with some removable pins so you can lift one side or the other. The casters are 8" swivels. The saw in the picture is a Milwaukee 14" Dry Saw it cuts very smooth and very quickly leaving nice square ends and very little burr. It cut the 2x4 x.120 like nothing.

We first made the base on casters and then made up the hinges. Simple design and not much in cost.

We have the up right locks to make and paint it up

Here are the pictures
