Abstract
An apparatus for transporting and loading work pieces to be placed on a table grinder. The apparatus comprises a carrier unit and a plurality of holding tubes. Work pieces are placed over the tubes and are secured by means of a boot assembly located within the carrier assembly. The carrier unit comprises horizontal supports, vertical supports and a dial assembly. The dial assembly comprises a dial and a spring-loaded button. A cable is attached to the button and boot assembly. When the button is depressed, the boot assembly is relaxed thus allowing work pieces to be loaded or unloaded upon the tubes.
