Thread: pier carts??

Can you guys post some pictures of your home made carts? I need some ideas. Im coming down in august and I'm tired of carrying all my crap all the way to the end of the octi. I only come down about twice a year and do not want to have to give 250.00 for a cart that I would only use once or twice a year. I have an idea about what I could use, but really don't want to get made fun of. :-( Ha ha. Trust me, its pretty cheesy. But it would work.

look in the Members Photo Gallery, the post "pier carts and other contraptions"

I use a cheap hand-truck I bought from Walmart back in 1990, still using it.
. I built at wooden 4-rod rack for it.
I strap my 48 quart cooler to the bottom, drink cooler on top of that, rods & gaff on the cart and my tackle pack goes over the shoulder. Its worked great for me. No pics, will try to get some this weekend.

Academy has the cart in the link below for $70 and it would probably make a good pier cart and general use cart for around the house.

I was thinking about a luggage carry that folds out, strap the cooler to it, milk crate on to for my junk, rod holders strapped on somehow.
