Also make it stable, lots of carts have the uncanny ability to tip over.
Yes!!! listen to this man. this year our cart was very back heavy, and the wheels were too far in the front. when there was a robot in there, everything was fine, but when we moved it without the robot it tipped over A LOT, at the most inopportune times. we had a lot of drawers with tools in them, and they would fall out. it was VERY embarassing when i eagerly moved the cart while we were in the finals at the Philly regional, and it tipped over right infront of the scoring table. so, moral of the story, make sure your cart won't tip easily.
