I agree, but most of the time I will be by myself.

I decided against the trailer hitch and coupler thought, Too much work. Esp when I stopped by a shop that does some welding for me. He had an old cart that the wood had all rusted, but the casters are heavy duty and welded to the angle iron.

I removed all the old bolts securing the wood decking, and replaced w/ some seat bolts, that were slightly stripped and not going back. Not really needed, since spot welded, but looked better.

Anyway, I will have a place welded on top, then place some sort of bearing swivle between the plate and the crossmember( or angle iron) . Also will have a short handle that let me turn the wheels.

Any idea of what I can use to allow about 130 deg or so rotation between the wheels and crossmember, preferably w/ ballbearings??

Any Idea the distance betwwn the bottom of the cross member and the ground?
