Leaf cart

Poly tub cart started out as a wagon.
Removed the front axle to make a two wheel cart.
Started by putting stakes in the stake pockets.
Stakes are 4 feet long.


Added 1/4 inch plywood to make a box.
Cart is nearly 6 feet tall.
Top is covered with 1/2 inch wire mesh for ventilation.
8 inch urethane hose from the mowing deck to the top of the cart.


Vacuums the yard very well. Packs it in tight.
Makes a huge dust cloud while vacuuming.
Holds more if I chop them with the mower before vacuuming.
Got 9 loads already, and lots of leaves still in the trees.
