Show me your carts

For those who have the Rock N Roller R6 - do any of you use the shelf as a desktop at your gig? I currently have an X-stand with a shelf on top to sit my rack unit with my Radial KL-8, power conditioner and my laptop etc. Seems I could ditch that for the Rock N Roller with Shelf at the top....

I have the shelf. I don't use it for gigs. I only use it when I do location Audio at a video shoot. I setup my field recorder, mixer and laptop (for log sheets) on it. It's a PITA to put on / off, so no way I want to use it on a Gig.

Ok thanks so much, good to know

What do you use the bluetooth keyboard/trackpad on the left for?

Original poster weighing in. Borrowed my son’s Home Depot Milwaukee cart. He used it when he was subcontracting with FedEx. 
 Used it Friday night and worked pretty good! Doing a casino this weekend and see how it goes there. New gig. 
 

I like having my keyboard cases already on a “table” so I don’t have to work off the floor.

Looks like a nice cart, as good or better than the R&R carts that are popular! Keep us posted on how you like it! The only small concern I have, based on my own experience, is those small wheels might be stubborn on rough terrain or thresholds. I've had those issues with my R&R, though I've found that a bit of brute force to just push the thing firmly and quickly will help.

Eric, funny you just mentioned thresholds. Letting battery charge to finish cutting a wedge 2x3 for thresholds. Friday had about a 3” lip going into the building. Pushed the 10” wheels in with just a little speed. 3rd try. Little wheels were no problem, I just lifted a bit. I pulled instead of pushed on my house threshold and I think that works better, maybe?

So far only complaint is it’s big and heavy and doesn’t collapse down. 
 

I think it’s a Home Depot exclusive for $229

Naming folders in the Zoom field recorder (it's cumbersome to do it in the recorder). I don't use it anymore though- I find that most shoots don't need a lot of different folders, so I just set them up at home before the shoot.
