Firewood Cart

Went in to Tractor Supply for dogfood this evening and came back with these two items. I have been using a cheap junky kids wagon for the last few years to haul wood from the shed to the house and last winter pretty much finished the old one off. They had this wagon marked down to 99 and I had a 20% off coupon so I jumped on it. The one in the store looked and felt sturdy and it has a #1400 lb capacity. Anyone here use this type of wagon if so let me know what you think before I start putting it together tomorrow so I can take it back if need be.

Also picked up a T-post driver. I have gotten tired of using a sledge hammer.

 

So far I'm really liking this thing and it's definitely better than a kids play wagon. I think it will make rolling the wood to the wood door much easier this winter!
It is quite a bit bigger than it looks and two adults can sit side by side in it. The handle also rotates so you can pull it with a tractor if you want to.

 

Good looking small cart Cert. Ought to handle a load of wood no prob.

 

Looks wide also, won't tip over easy! Good price, can't go wrong.

 

I know I have seen other people on here that have those.
It has the stake pockets so you can add higher sides .
I think it might be more durable and last longer than the one I have , so far so good though I like it, haul anything and everything in it
If I had it to do over again ,I would get that one.
The weight specs on these carts are over rated though mine is rated for 1000lbs ,no way would it stand up to that weight.
The 13" wheels will go through some snow too, not real deep

 

Very nice cart. Lets see it with a load on it.

 

Where did you get a 20% off coupon for Tractor Supply ?

 

I looked at that cart also but liked how wide this one was. There is no way I would attempt to put 1400lbs in this thing! lol

They messed up an order twice and caused me to wait an extra week for a special order. The manager was super nice about it said he appreciated me being understanding and gave me a 20% discount on my next purchase which happened to be the cart. Nothing more than my name in a book by the register for causing a hassle.

 

Just one question......did you get the dog food?
Curious, because I picked up a bag there a few days ago. Can't let my puppies go hungry.

 

Yes, I remembered the dogfood! We had a few more days left on the bag we had though

 

I roll mine right in the back door and unload it into my bin

 

Home made .

Made from an old wheel barrow, it goes through doors easily .

I grew up in a community that every body burned firewood or sawdust to heat and cook with , the earliest models that I remember even had steel wheels .

 

Makes sense Allan. Nice and narrow. I'll bet a typical hand truck with large air filled tires could do a similar decent job of getting thru doorways too.

 

I haul the grandkids around in this in the warm months, and haul fire wood to the wood furnace in winter. I shelled the mower deck out, hitting to many rocks!

 

I have had the same one for about three months and it is a great cart. Beats the pants off a wheelbarrow.

 

For hauling 16" splits, this http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200494852_200494852 does it all for me.
Totes a week's worth plus, and fits through narrow door opening. Wheelbarrow works for odds/ends/uglies to bandsaw a/r.

 

Had one of those on the farm and it held a fully dressed with oil and coolant Cummins 6BT fine... about 1000 ish lbs.

 

Really !!
I could be wrong , been wrong before
