what would you suggest for a braking system?How much does the bronze weigh?
I'd be thinking light
As far as anti tip feature, how about canting the wheels like some wheel chairs?

Bicycle brakes?what would you suggest for a braking system?
My current bike has disk brakes. Wonder how that would work and be set up.Bicycle brakes?
Would probably work better than the clamp style. You may be able to figure out a 2-1 brake cable?My current bike has disk brakes. Wonder how that would work and be set up.
@Tropicalbri'sI love your art work and design! Can't wait to see the finished product!
Another option would be a live axel between the wheels. Attach the brakes to the axel.I think the front wheels need to be built with a live axle so I can make turns. I was thinking I could do two sets of disc brakes. One on each rear wheel and have the control levers for stopping run to and mounted on both sides of the inside of cart in front where I would sit. What do you think?
Yes, I had already planned that! Hopefully 4 on the ground will keep me from landing upside down.View attachment 79424 I think you should DEFINITELY go with FOUR wheels! Less chance of flipping.
Just came across this again this morning and wondered if you ever finished your cart?Been too busy with other things to get much progress done. One of my friends is welding the framework for me.
My friends in Panama City whose husband is a welder had it made and all that was needed was for me to pick it up and put the bronze doberman cuts outs on it. Unfortunately work and a health issue prevented me from getting up there and picking it up. I was going to head up in Oct of last year and get it but Hurricane Michael hit and destroyed my friend’s home, shop and everything. The devastation to my home town was really bad so that was no longer a thing I even considered anymore. When I took the pups up with me to help rescue lost and injured pets right after it hit (when I was allowed in) it never crossed my mind. It was like looking at the damage from Irma the year before for us. so to answer your question no I don’t have the cart but I do have the bronze Dobermans to go on it.Just came across this again this morning and wondered if you ever finished your cart?
