Garden Cart

16 years ago

Hi I saw a set of plans on how to build one of those big bicycle wheeled garden carts. I think it was a month or two ago but I did not buy the magazine and now I wish I had. Does anyone know which magazine had those plans. If not is there a set of plans out there anyone knows about that I could use. Thanks in advance.

Hi Brian,

I didn't see that magazine but did find a picture of one on Lee Valley.ca Is this the kind you want to make? A little pricey to buy.

I've never seen one of these carts in action but they seem quite popular.

There's another store I've seen them at, Princess Auto. Maybe they have a store close to you.

There was an article on tip carts in the Mother earth news.

I have a tip cart (with bicycle wheels) like you are describing....They are great for hauling leaves, soil etc.
