going bug eyed over buggies

admin

This months project. 8 sunglass display carts for a NASCAR event vendor.Still have a little ways to go. There's a cabinet with clam-shell doors on the front and flush doors in the back, and a lid on top and it gets sheeted with 16 gauge. In these shots the rear axle is just quickly tacked up to test the steering. I didn't bother getting the ackerman angle correct due to the time constraints, they have to leave by the 31st, so it scrubs a little in tight turns.

Reply:Next year, talk him into upgrading to 4 wheel steering so the carts will all track and make tight turns. HF tires only hold air if they are pumped up in some smog-filled Chinese industrial town.  Air is thick and lumpy.  Best tires I've had are the ones on a Milwaukee hand truck I got at Homey Depot.  Tubeless."USMCPOP" First-born son: KIA  Iraq 1/26/05Syncrowave 250 w/ Coolmate 3Dialarc 250, Idealarc 250SP-175 +Firepower TIG 160S (gave the TA 161 STL to the son)Lincwelder AC180C (1952)Victor & Smith O/A torchesMiller spot welder
