Recycled PVC Trailer & Shopping Cart (AND A DIY TOW HITCH)

UPDATE 3/25/2021:
See the COMMENTS for a suggestion on a different wheel mount design. By luck, I mounted the casters in this video in a way that might have prevented the tendency for swiveling casters to wobble. If the cart were level, I might not have had a successful high speed test. It's nice to have viewers with constructive comments.

UPDATE 12/13/2019:
In this video, the lifted front end you see in the thumbnail was not planned. After using the cart in this configuration for some time now, I'm coming to find I like it this way. Usually, when riding on the street with a level flatbed, things slide around and shopping bags empty out by the time you get home. With the tilted flatbed pushing everything towards the back, I like the fact that items don't slide around the cart anymore. I'm definitely leaving the cart in this tilted configuration. I feel it's a better design. It's not a bug. It's a feature. Hah.

ORIGINAL POST:
Today I'm taking my old bike trailer/shopping cart and recycling it to build a new one. Also, for the first time, I'm going to show you exactly why I use screws to hold my PVC projects together instead of glue. To see me do all of this, stay tuned.
