That's very cool, but I have another question for you. In the background, is that one of those frames for water tanks, converted into a trailer? What a totally cool idea, and can you tell me more about how you did it?

Just welded two pieces of box steel on to it, one for an axle and one for a tongue, the a couple little pieces of 5/8 round stock at the ends of the axles to mount the wheels on. I thought the 5/8's axle ends wouldn't hold up at all, but so far, so good, and I have carried around 500lbs!
