[pwnageNick]

Battery cart with the lid and handle in place. Lid attaches to the cart frame with 4 thumb screws for easy removal. When the lid is taken off and the cart is standing up, the lid can be attached on the backside over the wheels and re-attach with the same 4 thumb screws.



Battery cart lying down with lid and handle seperated (top right). The handle when taken off can be stored inside the lid, sitting on 2 pieces of 80/20 extrusion that is on the lid frame.



Battery cart standing up (Pit position) with the lid and handle on the left. Spill kit will be kept right under the 3-Bank chargers and DeWalt/Drill chargers will be somewhere (TBD).



Underside/Backside of the battery Cart on left. 2 Casters with brakes on the top, 2 Fixed wheels on the bottom. All wheels are 6" Colson wheels taken off of a Lista work-table.



Battery wire clip in hand, charger clip attached to plate. All charger clips are mounted to the cart allowing for easy plug in. All of the batteries sit a ~10 degree slant while in the slots.

Sorry for the long post, but figured I would get all of the information about it out now rather then later.

Let us know what you think!

Wow, that's a really nice cart and looks very efficient.

Well, I'm jealous. The only issue I can see is that the cover and the casters will take up valuable pit space. Are there any plans to use that void for anything to reclaim the lost space?
