I have a fairly small room, which has become wall to wall furnature and i am wanting to make a change. One of the things taking up the most space in the room is my desk(which i only use for my computer) and I am curious if any of you know any alternatives that could be used instead of a big computer desk.. Like a chair with a slide over trey to rest your laptop on, or a small cart on wheels that would be adustable to any height for a chair or bed? I’m really wanting to cut down on all the junk in my room and almost go minimalist, while not loosing too much comfort and ease of operating my computer.
Any Help and/or ideas would be greatly appriciated, as well as links to products or product names! thanks!

How do I stop the hitting ?

 

My son is two, and he is a hitter. So bad I dont even want to bring him to the nursery at my moms church or anywhere else cas Im afriad hes going to hit a kid or an adult. I feel I am to blame for this because since he was the age of reaching and grabbing Ive smacked his patties. This was used for things like the stove and other things that were harmful or werent to be touched. Now I have created a monster. I was in the grocery store and flipped my hand over and smacked it because he didnt want to sit in the grocery cart seat. (YIKES) I am due in august with my second child and Im petrified. What do I do to reverse this ? Im not doing the smack patties thing anymore..what can I do ?

Who has plans for a heavy duty deer cart or ideas?

 

I live in Alaska and want to build a heavy duty cart to haul gear, moose meat or a deer through some of the roughest terrain you can imagine.
It has to be able to slide over rocks, logs and have good ground clearance, go through sand, mud, water etc. I have checked out game carts online and they are just too flimsy.
It needs to be able to carry at least 200 pounds.
It will be pulled by hand and with a ATV quadrunner at times.
So do you have suggestions for the tires, frame, etc etc?
I would rather go with over kill because I don’t want it to break down 10 miles from a road.

Any ideas welcome!
Ok let me explain more. We can only get so far on a quad and have to go by foot the rest of the way. I bought that whiz bang super duper game cart from Cabela’s and it fell apart just pulling it by hand over this terrain. It got good reviews from people but Alaska was too much for it.
Falconry2 answer is more in line of what I want.
Is there a better place to ask this on answers?
Even if it takes two men to pull it, it must be strong as hell. You see we also use it for gold prospecting and all that gear weighs at least 200 lbs. The area we go to is accessible only by flat bottom river boat with jet drive. So it will be hauled there by that boat. It not unusual for us to travel 30 miles into road less areas; rugged, remote. The bad lands of the Dakotas would be a picnic compared to where we go.

Are the Big Yellow Monsters destroying America?

 

To answer this question one would do well to look at Charlote, NC
No Big Yellow Monsters there carting kids around from school to school. So the majority of kids go to the school nearest their homes, and behold, school violence is almost non-existant because the kids go to school with the same kids they play with after school. No roudiness in the classrooms because quite often the teacher socializes with most of the mothers…..don’t dare misbehave. But the BEST difference is the absence of police. No cops in the schools in Charlotte, N.C. Of course any child (or parent) can choose any public school they wish but if transportation is required, the parents must arrange transportation or take them themselves. And in addition to better, safe, and well ordered students, Charlotte officials are ahead 0,000.00 in Big Yellow Monsters fuel they no longer have to pay. Compare all that with cities where the Big Yellow Monsters still roam…are the Big Yellow Monsters destroying America?

anybody know a website with a whole lot of go-cart pictures?
