The Shopping Tool Cart

So it starts out with a problem... a problem that I am lazy and need a better way to carry my tools back and forth when I work on a car or project or something. I always tend to take out every tool in the garage for some reason or another, and I hate putting them all back because I have to make soo many trips. To solve the problem I decided I need a tool cart, and a shopping cart would work out perfectly....

After using the cart for a while, it seemed boring... And there were other problems that I was running into with my laziness. I felt that, while I work on my toys, I should be able to quench my thirst and have a drink while im working. But there was never a good place to put my cup, can, bottle, whatever. Soooo.. problem solved, I installed a nice basket in the front of the cart which has 2 cup holders and also a nice area to keep any other items i might have laying around such like a cell phone, or wallet. It keeps them clean and out of the way, and also safe.

Now.... I thought that my cart was just perfect after the cupholder installation.... Nope i was wrong. Ever park a cart on a hill? does it stay there? I didnt think so. The problem I was having was my cart doesnt stay in one place... I was always fighting to find a something to put it up against or stop the wheels. After seconds of thinking... I found a solution. Parking brake. with a little cutting, grinding, and mounting I was successful, problem solved.

And.... I added a front lip, child saftey sign, changed the handgrip to a JDM name brand, and added fender mirrors for good measure....
