Well like it stated. I am in process of building a 40x50 shop to run my side business and rebuild trikes and 80's quads. I have been wanting to build a few carts that I could use to hold the frame and work on bike while being built. Well I was bored on Saturday because shop is in foundation process and my garage is FULL and it was raining. I thought it was a good time to build a cart and if I liked it a few more. Here is what I ended up with. I need to figure out how I can hold the frame solid to it, I want to put carpet on the surface the trike sits on. It also has a self below it to hold bolts and misc parts. I built it for around $50.

Thats pretty cool! Just a few 2x4 and some plywood and casters basically. How many feet of 2x4s and ply wood do you have in there?

Basically yes, took 4 2x4's. I predrilled all the holes and then used screws to prevent wood splitting. I could have built one out of steel but I had the wood to build this. I just need to figure out how to hold the frame so when I use a mallot or some force to get stuff on and off it will stay on cart. The Cart has locking wheels that hold really well.

Go buy a couple of those cheap/small ratchet straps and tie it down with those.

Seal up that bad boy before it gets oily or greasy. Honda ATC seat cover blue would look cool!
