My DIY Cart

Just thought I would post some pic's of my build. The wheels articulate and actually work as suspension. It glides over the sand too...

I have 4 more wheels if anyone is interested in them...

Did you use all thread thru the abs? i made something similar for a friends canoe, but used aluminum tubing for the axles, and hitch pins to hold the wheels in place. nice build.

They are just a hallow 8" wheel that was over produced for a cooler sales company I found.

Doesn't 4 wheels make it harder to turn? Why didn't you just use 2 wheels, that will leave enough room to drop in a 5 gallon bait bucket too.

Thanks. I used all thread, I wanted options until I was sure of build, then will probably switch.
