minus-squareIDontHavePantsOn@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·10 months ago1000 forks plus packaging is 4lbs. 250 forks per pound. Standard forklift capacity is 5000lbs. 250 x 5000 = 1,250,000 forks. Maybe slightly realistically and safely, due to load height and placement restrictions, let’s just call it between 750,000 and 1,000,0000 forks. Forks can fork a lot of forks. Fork.

Better math would be to measure the dimensions of a case and count how many cases fit on a standard 3’ x 4’ pallet stacked eight feet high.

Over load in a bit on the sides or get a 4×4 pallet and we reach 410,000 forks. Maybe I should sleep now.
