Made this sheet goods cart based on Carol Reeds post.

Simple to make, very stable and works great. I only need to move stuff 20 or so feet off the truck but MDF and baltic birch get heavy fast
Thanks Carol

Dan, Looks good. Is it stable enough to leave a full 4x8 sheet in it unattended or does it want to tip over?

Looks good, Dan.

I have often left it stand with a full sheet in it. It works if the tires are properly aired and the wind ain't blowin'!

Parked on concrete the tires lose air for some reason. I've taken to putting the thing on a shelf.

Carol, The tires loose air due to bad rim seal. Deflate the tire then squeeze the tire together so you can place some water right where the tire edge meets the rim. then overfill the tire with 2-4 extra pounds. This will reseal the tire and hopefully keep it from losing air when it sits around...

I'll have to check when I get home but I'm pretty sure these from HF have inner tubes

Thanks Carol
I have been surprised at just how stable this little guy is, I think I made mine a a few inches wider. With 1 full sheet on I could to tip it maybe 30* before it wanted to fall over.
