Tray thing on wheels
Benzine - 30/1/08 at 10:29 AM

I'm after one of those tray/storage things on wheels that I can push around the garage with me to keep basic tools on but I have no idea what they're called or where to get one. Anyone know?

I used the base from an old office swival chair on wheels that can be adjusted up and down. Then just bolted a tool tray to it. Cost about £10.

it is called Tesco shopping trolley, fished out of your local canal or river with a piece of ply bolted on top.

not only will you be cleaning up the environemtn but saving money too.

I found machine mart trolleys but machine mart is a fair way for me to drive

Sod it, I'll just buy some castors and some plastic trays from Wilkos I've got some plyboard I can use. Won't be pretty but "function, not fashion"

Should be ok. I cut a computer workstation up and adapted it for a welding trolley.

How about from Ebay?? Not sure how the price compares with delivery added but might be a solution.

Aldi have those small seats with tool tray attached. A bit like the Machine mart one, but height adjustable. You could always replace the seat with another tool tray if necessary.

what's wrong with the floor?

I find a healthy scatter of tools around the garage works well

Keep meaning to knock one up, but as usual the tools are just scattered all over the floor and various benches
