Re: pic: Our new cart, pic 1

THAT CHAIR IS SO 60s! Sweeeeeet.....

How much does it weight? Can the bearings in the wheels handle cargo, passenger, and the weight of the cart?

I suggest you swap out your front wheels for some hefty casters. I used some of these casters from NorthernTool on a pair of autonomous navigation test platforms and have run them in dusty environments for some time now, never had a problem. They have a capacity of 300lbs a piece.

If your rear wheels can't support the weight of your vehicle, you might try some of NorthernTool's 10" tires with an already mounted 60 tooth #35 chain sprocket.

Very awesome cart! I hope you don't have to turn it in a very small space though... its a limo in length!
