foliver Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 Hello all. I want to reduce weight and size of my cart. Do you have any tips, on lightweight antenna mast and pair of rear weels? here's a picture of my actual cart. It's steel structure, Avenger steel antenna mast, and big weels. I want to reduce the wide to the recorder size ( a little more centimeters). thanks all for any tip, or advice. Maybe be i go for the cart bag configuration, but i don't like it a lot....i've another recorder in a bag for cars etc.. Quote
Paul F Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 - This type of wheel is narrower and lightweight. Not good for sand, but ok for everything else. Put it outside the frame. Pick your favorite diameter. https://www.amazon.com/Martin-Wheel-PLSP14D175-1-75-Inch-Semi-Pneumatic/dp/B004RX1050 - Use a T-slot aluminum frame instead of steel. https://www.tnutz.com/product-category/10-series-extrusions/ - There's any number of aluminum extendible poles that will work for a mast. Perhaps a cheap 2-section boom pole - https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1606020-REG/auray_bp_36a_3_section_telescoping_boompole.html/?ap=y&ap=y&smp=y&smp=y&store=420&lsft=BI%3A6879&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwzMi_BhACEiwAX4YZUGo8WBUuzHGb_iNYkZ19aHCDk5FnzF6TnNmuQHAd48Xunv0q5EwI_hoCPagQAvD_BwE Quote
