(Another simple project, but I want to be sure I give more then I take from the site. Maybe it will give someone else an idea to build from. Maybe a good first welding project, or one you can do with the kids.)
I am about 6' tall, so although my arms are long enough to carry 4'x8' sheet goods, sometimes it's awkward.
Sure you can buy a panel tote:

and some very expensive ones too:

I wanted to make one from parts I had around.
This is what I came up with. One piece of steel angle, a couple feet of steel rod, and a few minutes at the vise and welder.
Not pretty, but it works!
