new rustler box/tool box, and i would like to thank m@xxamillion for inspiring me

[ohstiger]

well, in that thread with maxxamillion's new box, it inspired me to make something of my own, well here are the pix, the bottom and top are separate but I'm getting some heavy duty hasps to connect them so i can take them apart whenever i need and also I'm waiting for a thick broomstick to make the handle, not as good as maxxamillions, but it will work for me, est. weight 35-40 lbs.

The box looks good, but how do you carry it there is no handle on it.

 

[ohstiger]

hunter, like i said in the first post, i am waiting on a thick broom stick to make the handle.

Looks nice but 40 lbs is kind heavy, is that the empty weight? You might want to think about putting wheels on it.

I did read where you said that, I just had to see if you would bite And I did say it looks good but I guess you missed that part

 

[ohstiger]

no, 40 lbs. loaded, but i will get the exact weight when i get a handle on it. i was thinking about wheels, but then it would make it taller, i will try it like this for right now, and if it doesn't work out i will put pneumatic tires and wheels.

I think he did a great job all around.
What needs to to be considered?

 

[SkyMaxx]

There is nothing that needs to be considered. Without using a blueprint or kit from someone else, he built this thing. It meets all of his needs, and it looks decent to boot. I'd say without hesitation that he did a great job.
