Re: Porta-Pit (TM)

Here is a slightly improved porta-pit. The only real change is that there is a small tool cabinet/battery charger/bed.

I also developed it so that it is modular, and easily disassembled. It also gives plenty of room for sponsor's ads.


The pit area has a base of 8'x8' and is as high as 12' which should make it easier for people to notice.

If it ever gets built there will be power strips mounted inside the crate, and on the frame.





This picture shows how this all gets together. These connectors are made of wood, and supposedly they shold be strong enough to hold the frame together. If necessary, they can be substituted for something else.




So, any possible improvements?
