Converting a sack barrow
« on: April 28, 2007, 12:32:38 pm »
Any top tips for making a trolley system out of a sack barrow?

I've seen the sack barrow I want which is similar to the freedom trolley.

Thinking of putting a deep cycle battery at the bottom in a welded box with a 50L round container on top of that. Not sure where is best to put the pump and whether it would be too heavy to add a small hosereel on the opposite side.

Any thoughts appreciated. Thank you!

hi rednick, do you put the pump and battery in the same box ?.
also how did you attach the box to the barrow?

cheers

the pump and battery are both in box which i bought from wintecs-complete.
the box is a lovely snug fit between trolley uprights,so just push it in,bought trolley from b&q-£13 what a bargain.
