Re: Has anyone tested out the viability of using hooks to lift totes?

I'd be curious to see a picture of the setup and general geometry you used. Our current stacking design is planned to grab each tote individually, so will not see nearly as much load on each hook, but it's interesting to hear that you can pick up 5 with the lip of just one tote.
