Freeze Dryer Carts Build - Part 1- The Plan, Cutting, Gluing, Assembling
Freeze Dryer Carts Build - The Plan, Cutting, Gluing, Assembling - Part 1: Building the main body of the carts. We finally build carts for our Harvest Right freeze dryer and for our bagging area using (mostly) materials we had on hand. I understand that most people don't have that much extra plywood just hanging around.Our current freeze dryer cart kind of sucks, and our bagging area is worse. Building two "quick" and "simple" carts for our Harvest Right freeze dryer and the bagging area. We have been freeze drying for almost 4 years and never bothered to make a decent stand or cart for either the freeze dryer or for the bagging area. I"m finally building carts.
