To BeachcartsUSA:
"I recently purchased a set of Roleez
wheels and an axle to adapt to a beach cart that I had purchased
previously in Stone Harbor, NJ. The cart was great, carried many
things and folded up for easy storage but the wheels always dug into the
soft New Jersey sand. I have enclosed a picture of the finished
product. Every time the cart goes on the beach, someone always
stops and asks about it. Thought you might like to see it."
Sincerely,

How I Did It! - The
Basic Model See Below For The Deluxe Model "I made an axle base out of 1.5" by 1.5" treated wood 18" long and drilled two 3/4 inch holes 7/8 inches deep into the wood to accommodate the two back legs of the cart. The 1/2 inch by 28 inch axle that I purchased with the wheels, was cut in the middle and a piece was welded to extend the axle's length 4 inches. This gave some clearance on both ends between the cart legs and the Roleez® wheels. I bolted the wooden axle base to the metal cart legs to secure it to the cart and I used a stainless steel eye bolt as a means of securing the axle to the cart. I used two axle collars to keep the axle properly spaced at all times. I painted the wooden axle base with a good exterior white paint and the job was finished" |

How I Did It! - The Deluxe Model
"The
modifications I made followed the exact same procedure that the original
above did, but slightly larger to accommodate the larger beach cart. I
made an axle base out of 1.5" by 1.5" treated wood 19 3/4" long and
drilled two 3/4 inch holes 7/8 inches deep into the wood to accommodate
the two back legs of the cart. I had a 1/2 inch stainless steel axle
made at a machine shop that was 34 1/4" long. This gave some clearance
on both ends between the cart legs and the wheels. I bolted the wooden
axle base to the metal cart legs to secure it to the cart and I used a
stainless steel eye bolt as a means of securing the axle to the cart. I
used two axle collars to keep the axle properly spaced at all times. I
painted the wooden axle base with a good exterior paint and the job was
finished." - E. M. |
