Maybe It's A Dumb Ass Idea

Exactly what I had in mind. They are not on their website. Do you know if they still make them and about how much. I like the PVC, cafiteria tray idea too, got any pics?

My buddy says they are $130.

Am I the only one that sets all kind of stuff on the tires when working?

Hell no, I set more crap on the tires than on the bench. I seriously say I'm gonna build some sort of tray every time something falls off on the floor.

Well I have been working on this today. The next one I build will be a lot better. This one tacked together and taken apart several times. Have some changes to make in the programming. Put way too many tacks on it before realizing it had to come back apart. Ran out of steel, so the bottom has two patches!!!!!

You're gonna post something badass like that and NOT include the hardline member special price?!

3 more to go. We all know that if we have one we will set stuff on the other three tires! I guarantee you I would.

Seriously, I'd buy at least two if you do end up selling some. Maybe you could do them as a weld it yourself kit? Make it a lot easier to ship.

There will only be one like that one!!!! Shitty welds and a two patch bottom. De-designing it again in CAD. Working on something bolt together. The 16 gauge does not weld good for me. Fine line between gobbing up and burning through.

And I am out of metal.

Re:

Badass John... I've been thinking about one with hinged wings to store flat... No need to weld except the basket area.
What ya think?

Well, another complete re-draw today. Drew it last night to make it bolt together, only to find out I could not handle the width in the Swag Offroad Press Brake.

I thought I was working only with the limits of the Torchmate, which is 24" x 24". Then realized the press brake is not that wide. Some looking on the Swag Offroad site shows I can only bend 19" wide.

So, first redraw today fit properly, but wobbled on the tire. So, I remade the ends with an arch and at the same time added a hand hold to move it easier.

Here are some pics:

in next post!
