This video illustrates how to build a heavy duty kayak or similar transport cart using EMT conduit and Maker Pipe connectors. I needed a sturdier cart than the typical PVC type based on the weight of my kayak and terrain.
Parts:
3/4 inch diameter EMT conduit (cut to length).
* 12 inch (5).
* 16 inch (2).
* 20 inch (1) .
* 25 inch (2).
1/2 inch diameter PE irrigation tubing (cut to length).
5/8 inch diameter all thread rod (cut to length).
5/8 inch diameter washers (4).
5/8 inch diameter nuts (2).
3/4 inch diameter rubber chair leg caps (5).
Pneumatic cart tires with 5/8 inch diameter bearings (2).
Pool noodles (cut to length).
Maker Pipe connectors - makerpipe.com
* 90 degrees (2).
* 45 degrees (4).
* T (5).
All parts (other than Maker Pipe) can be found at Big Box hardware stores and/or Amazon (copy and paste part into Google)

Nice design and video. I would recommend drilling the end of the threaded rod and inserting a Cotter pin to prevent the nut from coming off. The threaded rod may have to be lengthened to accommodate the pins

I will try this design with a modification to make it more all terrain. The one flaw I see is the axle is low and will get banged by stumps and protruding rocks on portages. I will use this excellent design but make four the forks instead of two and have two short axles with a space between them this will give the cart a great deal of ground clearance.

How about an updated video of you transporting your kayak with this cart? Would like to see how it's working so I can decide if this is how I want to build mine!
@Aksmaniyak
@Aksmaniyak 2 года назад
It is just like other carts. Run a strap around the kayak and through the cart. I put it closer to the rear and lift from the front.
@1982mako224
@1982mako224 3 года назад
Nice. You can save yourself quite a bit of weight and cost by using a piece of conduit as your axel instead of allthread. To secure the wheel all you need are washers and a cotter pin on each side of the wheel.
@Aksmaniyak
@Aksmaniyak 3 года назад
Thanks. The weight and cost of the all thread and nuts/washers is minimal compared to the strength gained. I have made other carts for my specific use that basically exploded.

Well, I like the design, and you did a good job, but after sourcing the parts and prices, it would be far less expensive to buy a ready-built cart that seemed at least as strong for the purpose. The list price on the connectors seems expensive. Additionally, it seems a bit over-built for the intended purpose of hauling a fiberglass canoe or plastic kayak. For my usage, larger wheels helped much more in traversing uneven rocky terrain. I built one based on the design posted by Mic.

Great explanation. What kind of kayak do you use on this case - weight? I’m thinking of doing a similar one for my fishing kayaks, but will use balloon beach wheels. So, likely will have a different axle design. However, that aside, I think I’ll still be able to use your overall layout. Thanks for sharing!

I really like this cart plan and am looking to buy the kit. I have an old town sportsman pdl that is over 100 pds, and the channels are about 10 inches apart. Do you think this cart would hold up if I made the supports closer together, but possibly left the axle 24 inches wide for stability? Thank you
@Aksmaniyak
@Aksmaniyak 2 года назад
Yes, you can do that and it will be stable. I just shortened the 2 cross members to 18" and did not shorten the axle.
