I've been drawing out and shopping for parts for my concept screening device Hobbling around with crappy mobility and a cane makes it tough for me and I can't carry the screening gear, so I sketched out a device kind of like you did. My screen-box will pivot, and to help me balance better I'm using a two-wheeled design. Also took into consideration shielding the axel so all the fine particulate matter doesn't get in there with the grease and bind things up.

Of course I still have one task to deal with other than maneuvering the contraption into place, and that is convincing my bad back and shoulders to handle a shovel. I haven't been able to do that well since the latter '90s after back surgery ... and before I got worse again.

There are a lot of relatively flat and maneuverable sites down in your region and it ought to serve you well. Hope to see it in action and admire the results on a WTHO this year. (We'll be into our closing weekend of the 5th WTHO in just 13 weeks!!!) Nice time investment!
