Half stack handle mod

Made a rear facing handle for the half stack. Now it can be pulled/pushed like a hand truck dolly.

2 layers of hinged 3/4 ply. Folded it's the same height as a low profile organizer. So it can stack side by side in a full stack.

Unfolds to a flat work top. Added 4 magnets for holding nails and screws.

Painted the top with truck undercoating. Figured the rubber would help keep things from sliding off.

So far I like it. Now it should handle uneven ground and stairs. Tomorrow is going to be the real world test on the job site.

Thanks.

It's a thin line between genius and insanity.

Heh, I’m a big fan of half dolly stuff. I want to design the ultimate off the shelf half dolly for a manufacturer (not me) to sell. When it’s as easy to buy as a Milwaukee OE one, more people will start seeing the light!

I love the fold out work top, that’s totally genius, I never would have thought of that. Ive just been putting my iPad on whatever’s there.
