Garry (Mossyrockhound) has a WWII Ammunition bag that he uses to haul rock on his Rokon motorcycle. The other day, we took it off the bike, and made a pattern from it. The bag is a yoke that fits over your shoulders, and has a pocket both front, and back. I made two of them, one for me..the ugly one, and one for my wife, the pretty one. Here is what they look like. Woody Both bags, the white one shows the back, whilst the maroon one (pretty) shows the front.  Close of Kathy's bag  |

Wow, you have one of those antique things and it still works. I think they used to call them a sewing machine or something like that. I haven't seen one in years. You did some really nice work with it too. You should be able to wear your back out and carry a bunch home with one of those.

They are great.Even better if i can get my wife in one.Really,those make great sense.
I welded up a light weight rock buggy with real tall bicycle wheels.The tub lifts off and can be carried over a log or under a fence and set back on the cart.The bicycle tires/wheels are 26 inchers.

I really like your back yard. Looks like you have spent a bit of time designing it. The creek with the rocks is very cool looking. Nice and peaceful looking.

James - PICTURES PICTURES PICTURES I have been kicking around an idea something like that because of my bad back. I haven't figured out how to get the axles to work. Did you stick one side into a small pipe or did you go over the top to make a yoke? If I strapped it to me down at my hips there would be no stress on my back.
Will you make another post so we are not stealing this one.
