Entertainment Fabrication Releases New Truss Dollies

Entertainment Fabrication has released their line of truss dollies to the marketplace. Entertainment Fabrication’s dollies for standard 12″ and 20.5″ truss are one of the most rugged, versatile, and user-friendly methods for transporting truss. All dollies are manufactured from 1.5″ of Baltic Birch plywood, and are fully glued, screwed, and bolted together.
