Just kidding, many people will love to have a bed and fine working mechanism. The magnets are a great idea, the one I did works great, attracts all the metal too  , I wish I had a gold magnet though.

Smart azz! I hope you are right and I can make a few people happy with these. I have been working on this stuff almost daily for a month with many ideas thrown to the scrap pile. I think I have finally figured out some things that are strong and look the part without being too complex but time will tell what others think. We have a lot of iron in the ground around here and yes the magnets are fuzzy already! I also wish that they attracted gold...

Thanks Alan, I am making the side pieces in a press. It starts out as 16 gauge sheet.

I plan on setting it up so that you can remove some of the steel that the magnets stick to. I know this is something that will have to be done manually but I think most people haul the same material most of the time be it dirt, rubber or whatever so it's not like you would change the setup after every load. I could make the stuff more complicated but that will only increase the price.
Well I'm off to town to pick out a color for the KH!
