Dolly (tool)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A dolly is a portable anvil used to hold a rivet in position while it is being clenched with a "snapper". It is commonly cylindrical in shape and relies on its mass to work. The act of using it is known as holding up or holding on.
It was used also in boat building while clenching nails. See clinker (boat building).
A dolly (sometimes called a caster board) is also a wheeled platform, usually without handles used to move medium heavy loads. It usually has four wheels or casters and a platform of wood, metal or plastic.
