(Considering it holds the panel from BELOW.. ) The only thing i would add to the Panel Carry would be a small piece of neoprene foam to the bottom of the slot where the sheet goes in. This should help keep the sheet from sliding out of the holder. It seems to me that the Stanley Panel Carry would be a whole heck of a lot cheaper, and IMHO, safer.

But by far my favorite plywood carrying tool is Glenn, my brother in law (and yes, generally he is a big tool). I currently use a Stanley panel carry, but it’s still a bit hard to use:
