Nashua Nev Posted August 27, 2011 Author Posted August 27, 2011 HA ,,, i took 2 20 inch front bike tires from the dump. took out the axle drilled them out, connected them together with a 3/4 inch threaded rod 3 ft long , put plastic pvc pipe over the rod where the threads were exposed to the canoe. now i have a canoe transporter for $11.64. total plus the 45 minutes it took me to build it and the 1 hour trip i took to home depot. I actually used it 3 times to get into silver lake. lots of fish , nothing bigger than 3 lbs yet. and used it twice at horseshoe pond in concord. adjusted it a little bit by adding 2 small hooks to stop it from moving under the canoe when going over larger bumps then took out the plastic pipe cover over the threaded rod and put a steel pipe instead ($4 more) . less flex when putting battery, trolling motor and grandson in canoe when using. works great !!!
