I wish I could find one for that price. In central PA, they are run about $120. I would rather build one, but don't have the time.

Mine was about that price at TSC, too.

Here's a pic of mine attached. Been using it and the FEL to haul mulch down to the garden that last couple days.

I just bolted a pallet to the bottom and 1 bys to the holes in the back. Then I bolted some 2 bys to the pallet in which to insert vertical 2 bys with 1 bys for the sides. The back folds down. The back and 2 sides can be lifted out.

Have ordered some tree seedlings. Think I'll get a 50 gallon tank and mount it on the pallet (with sides and back removed) to water them.

It they were $50 I would buy one this afternoon, however the wife would be very unhappy if I dropped another hundred plus. I figure I can get the scrap need for about $20. The only problem is, I don't weld. I guess I will try to cut, drill and bolt. By the time I am done with that, I will have spent more on tools, then I would if had bought it at TSC. At least I would still have the tools though.

Wow.. I see TSC has gone up.. alot. Like I say.. when i bought my carry all it was 49$ along with the 500# boom pole.. same price 49$,.. I see now they are 117$ at TSC.. wow.. I guess that switch to yellow paint ( kk used to be red.. ) was costly..
