Review on Swivel Tipping - Heavy Duty Capabilities Unleashed by Steve Hauck

Revainrating 4 out of 5

One problem - material handling products

Carts are well made and strong. I think they have a design flaw. The nuts and bolts that you use to attach the casters are located right where the rim of a 30 gallon plastic drum would sit. Both the bolt heads and hex nuts have sharp edges and I'm sure the heavy weight of a loaded barrel sitting on a sharp edge will be a problem for a short time. I cut out round plywood inserts to fit the carriage with cut outs for the screw head and that fixed the problem. However, I'm a little annoyed that I had to do my best when a slightly better design would have solved the problem.

Pros
  • Surprisingly strong capacity: 1000 lbs
Cons
  • I will add later
