Beach Cart

[tck4x4]

I needed a beach cart and did not want to spend a lot of money, so of course make it yourself. Bought two $12 harbor freight 13" wheels and about $10 of EMT, and two hours later I had this. I hope no one wants a drawing, because I just started bending and welding around the black box.

My wife and i payed $75 or so for a beach cart for my Mom last Christmas... It was cheap quality and didnt seem up to the task of coolers and sand..

Yours look much more ready for the work...

I'm going to have to borrow this idea. I use a wagon that seems to get in the way more than anything, and it has some trouble in the sand sometimes.

Thanks, I used a 1/2" EMT conduit bender. They look a little like a shepherds hook. It is very easy to bend 1/2", 3/4" is a little harder.

Nice make it up as I go along building.

The biggest problem I have had, and seen others have, is floatation in soft sand.
I ended up putting duels on mine.
