Just finished my new CAS gun cart. This is the contraption that you use to transport your long gun and shotgun as well as ammo and all the rest of the "stuff" from stage to stage.
Used some nice 3/4x12x36 inch sanded shelving that Home Depot sells for less than $5 each. It's glued up from thinner pieces but does a great job for projects like this. Took about a month, working on and off, to finish it.
As the pictures show it can break down into several parts for ease of transport and the large wheels make it easy to travel over rough ground. Looking forward to giving it a "test run" so to speak.

Nice!

Is that what a well heeled gunslinger of old used to carry his stuff around in the wild west? :-D

Do we have any idea yet as to when this article might appear?

 

[cheyenne ranger]

They said a few issues from now. I'll try to get some of the basic measurements to you.

I've lusted in my heart for a cart like that for a long time. Looks mighty good.

 

[butlerford45]

While I'm definately intrested in your cart, I wanna see the article! Be sure to let us know when it's out!!

 

[Old Cane]

That really is nicely done. I got one in a trade and it's just great but this is handy enough I may make one of these. Mines all one piece, holds six and is kind of heavy. Parking on hill (hills in TN?) it does get exciting lifting it into the truck. I like the cork. Great idea.

Nice Cart!

Looks like you did a bang up job on that cart. Looking forward to the article.

This was in another post but thought I would also put it here:

Here is the URL for directions on building my gun cart: http://users2.ev1.net/~dwel/rm weeky_scores.htm

While not drawings and plans as such they are step by step (sorta). Some pictures at the top also might help. If you have specific questions let me know. I will take some more pics in future and post them too.

About the only change was to move the handle up a bit so it is easier to tilt back. So far working out quite well.

cart

Sure is purdy.....

 

[Old Cane]

Is that the guy that did the Pony cart? He does a good job. Prices are good too.

 

[cheyenne ranger]

That was one of the carts I looked at when I designed mine. Got way too much woodworking stuff in the barn to buy a store-bought one. Mrs. kinda likes the looks of mine, too.

 

[Greybeard]

Old Cane, yup I think he also makes one called the Pony that is priced under $100 if I'm not mistaken.
