  i'll get you some pictures of mine in a bit . it's 4x4 wide and 3 tall I made it out of commercial square a/c duct some 30 odd years ago . it has been the best box I have ever owned and has hauled coon hounds beagles , labs and you name it  lol . it might weigh 50 pounds and is strong enough to rig dogs off the top or to support my 195 pound behind as of late  lol  . if you know some one in the commercial a/c buisness it wouldn't cost you very much to have one banged together  .

 I use a couple of the large plastic dog crates. Set side by side then run a large rubber strap across the front top and another behind them. You can haul a couple medium size dogs on each side super light weight and easy to handle. Not anything fancy but very functional.

  I don't know what I was thinking this morning lol  . the box is 4'' wide 3'' deep and 2'' tall , had a rough nite the old bones was aching  lol 










 the old box is looking a little rough these days and after 30+ years of abuse the bottom is starting to go but that is an easy fix , and I need to replace the grills on the sides and front of the doors but hey I can't complain it's been in service a long time   lol .

  the good thing about this a/c duct is that if you know a good duct man with a tin break and spot welder you can make them any size you want and they last a long time as said I've seen these shiney  factory made boxes that were pure junk after a few years  .
