Missed opportunity to use the wheels for the suitcase also. (By the way, I'm looking for a suitcase with air pressure wheels)

- aidenn0 11mo agoOut of curiosity, why do you want pneumatic wheels on your suitcase?
- amelius 11mo agoSound, mostly. But also helps with vibrations if I'm carrying sensitive equipment.
- 0xbadcafebee 11mo agoOne idea: Buy one of these (https://www.harborfreight.com/150-lb-capacity-foldable-hand-truck-58298.html https://www.harborfreight.com/150-lb-capacity-foldable-hand-...) and turn it into this (https://images.turnto.com/media/t7kuhATX6jW2ChSsite/5A481415279D40BC374AB1DD59A4BBDA.app1_1651438209517_1_L1800.jpeg https://images.turnto.com/media/t7kuhATX6jW2ChSsite/5A481415...). If you want to keep it foldable, instead of an axle going all the way through, use either a long bolt or threaded rod, with nuts and lock washers, to attach a smaller pneumatic wheel to each side (threaded rod goes through plastic enclosure, nuts/lock washers keep it locked on either side of plastic housing, wheel fixed on outside with bushings or cotter pin) Or you could strap your bag to a kayak cart (https://www.amazon.com/Kayak-Cart-Capacity-Foldable-Watercraft/dp/B076BV9K6R/ https://www.amazon.com/Kayak-Cart-Capacity-Foldable-Watercra...)
- rob74 11mo agoYeah, if the suitcase weighs 32 kg, you'd definitely want to have some wheels on it! Or (keeping with the technology available at the time) just go with a foldable bicycle - not as fast, but much lighter and more practical!
- dmurray 11mo agoIt looks like the wheels could stay attached to the outside of the suitcase. It means leaving it in the less standard configuration to pull around (landscape rather than portrait) but that can be overcome with a longer handle.
