Abstract
A panel carrying apparatus further comprises a handle having a gripping portion disposed at a first end thereof. A plurality of interconnected wall members are coupled to a second end of the handle. The interconnected wall members define a rectangular channel that extends in a direction perpendicular to an axial direction of the handle, and can be removably attached to a workpiece intended to be carried. The interconnected wall members further comprise three wall members connected in a rectangular U-shape having a width dimension sufficient to permit a standard-sized stud to be engaged therein. In an embodiment of the invention, a plurality of set screws are used to attach the interconnected wall members to the workpiece.
