There are 2 kinds that I've seen. The one most seem to know about sets the
sheet on a lip.
The other kind I've seen they call the Gorilla Gripper. It has a set of rubber
pads to protect the wood. The whole thing works like a pair of pliers. Open
the jaws and put a pad on either side of the sheet. As you lift, the pads come
together and squeeze the sheet. There is no shelf to rest the bottom on with
this model. You can read about the Gorilla Gripper at Woodcraft or Lee Valley.
Or just Google it. Or, you can try your luck again at big orange or big blue.

I guess I'll look again. As a matter of fact, I am much more likely to
ask for assistance than my wife. She insists on just looking around the
store, but history has proven that she frequently doesn't see things right
in front of her.
The last time I asked about a carrier, the guy looked at me like I had
three heads and didn't know what I was talking about.
I will be at Lowes tomorrow, so will ask around again.
