    I haven't been around much...

    I've been occupied with a welding project lately, thought some of you would like to see what i've been up to. These are 2 pictures of a yard wagon i'm building. I haven't gotten the tires for it in yet so i'm reluctant to build the steering assembly until i have them. Goal is to have 4 wheel steering for easy manuvering.

    Frodo: think radio flyer wagon but for use around the yard/house.
    jjh221: no remote control for now, 4 wheel steering is more of a because i can kind of thing. still haven't figured out the engineering behind it.

    The only way i can think of , is connect the two front to your handle or hitch and leave the rear two free.

    Edit: will prob have to make sure the rear two can not turn to far, as to rub on the frame. Looks good so far. Are ya gonna paint it GREEN ???

    Not sure on the paint color yet. Probably going to get someone that is better with paint to paint it even though I could. Once I get the running gear for this worted out i've got to rebuild the steering on my welder cart.

    the dots are joints(middle is a bolt through a track), the red are axles and steering rods. The T is the handle.

    Looks interesting - but why would you need 4 wheel steering when you guys have huge wide roads.....?????
