Just a small garage shop here, but using about 12-feet of 4" PVC pipe, scrap wood and an $11 Harbor Freight dolly (bought on sale for $8), I built this little cart to organize some of my metal stock.
The HF dolly is rated at 1,000 pounds, so even if you down-rate that to a more conservative 500 pounds, there's still plenty of capacity. The rig rolls really easily -- even over shop mats -- and there's no tendency to tip.
What's really nice is how much material you can store when it's vertical, and how easily you can locate what you need. It's been a handy addition to the shop.
