Good score on the equipment and stickers.

That's a real nice score indeed :thumbsup:  Another good use for those heavy duty racks would be next to an edger, with space between the two racks for equipment forks. Edger tail man puts the edgings in the rack, when full they get banded and the whole bundle can be lifted out with the machine.

If you look closely the black bottom legs on the edger outfeed table may be telescoping. So my guess is it has a grapple that picks up the bundle of edgings and the machine just walks them to where they need to go while he has lunch??? ffsmiley

I think that would be called the Jetson's "Elon Musk" approach.  ffcheesy 

On those YouTube videos, I'm seeing the edgings falling onto an oversized pallet with sides attached that clears the bottom of the edger out-feed. I'm guessing that our @PAmizerman uses a forklift to slide the edgings pallet from undertone edger and over to a banding machine. 
Up here in the far 'up-yonder', @Percy seems to have similar conveyors and kickers working for him.
Ten thousand steps in a day? Maybe.

Great way to deal with all the trimmings after the edger is finished its work.
Not sure if it's your original design, but it looks like it works really well. 
Well done!
