    This hauls more wood than a traditional wheelbarrow, but less that one of those 2 wheeled rubber ones.
    It's not too heavy to push it up a moderate grade....but it did push where my friend's plastic 2 wheeled one had to be pulled up the same hill....
    I dont know that Id want to build it to hold more.....unless I was moving around on concrete or pavement .

    yep, the weight adds up fast. My son was moving his load on the hard packed driveway, so it was pretty easy. It would likely mire on softer ground and not make it up any inclines.
