    Before you fold the wings grab the tail handle and pull to unlock your tail wheel then fold your wing

    That works fine until I need to go forward to jockey it around in the barn. Then the darn wheel locks again. So I crawl under, unlock, push it back, etc...

    Someday, when I win the Lotto, I want a 40' bifold door in the side of the barn so I don't have to go through this.

    In my profile photo's there is a tail wheel stand that connects to the tail of a tail dragger or trike, it uses a standard tow bar like a 150, a solid or pneumatic tire could be used

    The tail wheel scoop shown in post #18 will pivot under the tail wheel making it easy to push or pull the tail any direction with the wings folded.
