Well I made the cart yesterday.
Used the same directions except I only stacked two 2x4 pieces on the back. I also stained mine with some Colonial Maple I had sitting around. It was easier to stain than paint, no poly. Just get a lint free cloth and wipe it on, sanding is optional in this situation.
I had all the material I needed in the garage except the wheels. I purchased 2" rotating wheels with two of them of the locking type. I had padding saved from various packages over the years.
I used some egg crate foam and glued it on with spray adhesive and a couple staples.
Wrapped the other contact areas with another type of padding and stapled. Than wrapped that padding with some fabric the Mrs. had laying around and stapled. DONE.
I may use a tie down for the top once it comes off in a couple weeks.
