Tip and Flip Dolly
Ok, I have the plans but I am having trouble finding the size tubing listed. I am close to Charlotte NC tried three different metal places and they all say they only have 2x2x0.120 1.75x1.75x0.120 1.5x1.5x0.120 From what I can tell this will work just be heavier. Has anyone else run into this issue? Any thoughts or suggestion?

Re: Tip and Flip Dolly
I LOVE mine and only change I made was bigger wheels so I could roll it in my gravel driveway. I have a cab on it now that I plan to remove today and place another one on right behind it.
I can tell you another use, take the four stationary arm that slide into the bottom tubes and turn them upside down and a bed can sit in that to be moved around and or worked on |

Re: Tip and Flip Dolly
It is heavier and should work. You just need to make sure that the 1.75 slides inside the 2.0. I couldn't find 1.75. so I bought additional 1.5 in place of the 1.75 and welded 1/4 plates on for spacers that went into the 2.0 tube. Zero problems and I love the tip and flip.

Re: Tip and Flip Dolly
I have a set of plans for one that I never built would be more than happy to pay it forward to someone that could use them. Only draw back is I have to find them

Re: Tip and Flip Dolly
Question for anyone who has built theirs. I am having trouble figuring out what / where the 5/16 pins are for? Photos would be great. Got my plans, am just sourcing out materials now. I am also having trouble finding 1.75" square tubing. Does not seem to be a common size at all. Thanks.
