That means it might end up becoming a permanent fixture, which in turns means I might have to buy a couple more frames...<br /><br />If I hadn't happened across that crate I'd been planning to do something along Heywood lines with stackable single plank bodies.<br /><br />Colin's suggestion for a man rider is to use the skip frame with a suitable plank bolted between the skip supports. I think that could work rather well, but it would need quite low footboards to be mounted somehow.<br /><br />J<br /><br />James Finisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16351798531269786632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8015792618471574238.post-89346891028328471772016-08-13T15:28:37.855-07:002016-08-13T15:28:37.855-07:00James,
