BGE Yard Cart
Whippleman
Posts: 2
- Been lurking on here for a while and couldn't find any designs that allowed easy movement around a yard. I also need a small work surface to set my beer while cooking, so I came up with this design.
- Bought a cart from Harbor Freight
- Welded in some additional support, test fit the additional steel.
- Extra support fully welded into the cart.
- Found a granite coffee table with 2 broken legs in the trash, perfect size! Removed all the old legs and supports.
- New legs installed and the center mapped out.
- Cut here.
- Got a small stone hole saw and got to work
- All the stone cut and ready for the big hole!
- Starting to take shape! Kinda glad the granite was only about 1/4" thick.
Dremel tool made quick work of all the edges, then a final jig saw.
- Time to smoke some pork butt! I can't wait to get it fired up this weekend! Faced it with cedar and tried to get kinda close on the stain from the picked coffee table. All in all I have about $200 in the cart.

What is weight limit for that cart before your additions? I looked at some of those for a transport at fairs and festivals when having to park far away from booth.

I have one of those carts (with the flip up/down sides) I got from Home Depot many years ago and it is rated for 7 or 8 hundred pounds.Tspud1 said:What is weight limit for that cart before your additions?

Friggin' Awesome! Take it slow and steady and I'm sure it moves the egg very nicely. Keep an eye on your tire pressures so a flat doesn't tip you over.L x2, M, S, Mini and a Blackstone 36. She says I have enough now....eggAddict from MN!

Well, it is Harbor Freight.... they say the limit is 1000 lbs -
Just saw your post on Reddit and wondered if there'd be a thread here about it as well. Good work!! Really like the idea and execution.
