Just a bit of an update, thanks to Banana who linked to a Matthias Wandel you-tube I copied his idea for a very easy to make and easy to use bench lifter. Basically just a piece of 90x45 pine, routed on the edges and the left over dowel from my vice handle, I also added a couple of strengthening plates where the dowel hole is. It certainly beats standing on tip-toes to lift the bench and then kick the skate/dolly in underneath.
