Has anyone here made their own homemade beach cart? My wife and I will be going on vacation later this summer with our 5 month old twins, and I'd like to have a beach cart to haul our cooler, shelter, chairs, etc.
The decent commercial options out there (like the Wheeleez Beach Cart-Folding and Folding-mini) are expensive ($250+ for the large cart, $130+ for the mini, which is too small), or don't look like they handle the sand too well.
I'd like to make a simple one out of PVC since we'll be driving and have the room for it. Not sure on the wheel selection though, since the Wheeleez wheels seem like the only really good wheels for sand, and they are pricey for even the small PVC wheel axle kit ($79 plus shipping).
Anyone have wheel recommendations, or a good place to purchase the Wheeleez wheels at a decent price? The beaches in Wildwood are really long, so I'd like to have something that can handle sand well as opposed to a basic Radio Flyer like wagon that will sink in loose sand. Harbor freight has a good selection of cheap wheels, but none that are close to the balloon type sand wheels like Wheeleez.
