<span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Here are several sources for tough
carts.  I would suggest making the wheels
detachable for flight, but they would come in handy at other times.

<span style='font-size:

<span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Some would work if bought in pairs.<span
style='mso-spacerun:yes'>  (You can order some without the wheels
so they can be nested for shipping.) 
Then you could invert one, cut in access windows and bolt together for a
mini Body Helmet

<span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>An update on my hopper project...





<span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Arial'> 





<span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I've completed cutting the upper 1/2 or so that is 1.3 oz
silicone, and am currently awaiting the arrival of a roll of 1.0 to finish off
the bottom. It's taken about 2 weeks so far working a few hours in the
evenings, so when the rest of the fabric arrives (hopefully tomorrow) I will
finish up the panels and get my load-tape ordered from Bally. 





<span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Arial'> 





<span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Its a 32,000 cu ft 8 gore design (possibly with center-gore
load tapes, still not sure though I am leaning that way) that will fly a
garbage bin "basket" underneith. I'd like to eventually make a real
wicker basket for it with room enough for myself and 2 tanks (much like the
Adams Little Devil), as well as a collapsible design. Question, for those of
you who do fly the garbage-bin way, how did you go about acquiring your
carriage? I know the website for Schaefer Waste-Recycling but it has no
info on how to go about getting one... any help?
