    Z's DIY fishing cart

    Needed a fishing cart and they were more than I wanted to spend...so off to google images I went. Found this



    Got 10" pneumatic tires from Harbor Freight ($4 each on sale )

    Bought 22' of 1.25" schedule 40

    Ordered fittings (note: it needs 2 more t's and does not need the couplers)





    Started with handle, it has an impact on width.



    Had to cut down the front leg t





    more assembly

    No, bought some stuff I didn't need. Will come out between $65-70, sans paint, bottom, glue and cleaner that I had here

    I'd have to be a lot more efficient to make building them worthwhile. Spent a full day on this one.
