Description

We at Mitchell Ellis Products make a standard 8 x 20 foot nursery wagon. However we can actually fabricate any sizes that the customer wants on request. We offer the wagon tops made of both 11 gauge steel multi sheet and 3/16 one piece steel plate flooring. Some customers are budget conscious and decide to spend their money only for the 11 gauge which is about 1/8 inch thick. Twenty four years ago we made 10 wagons for a nursery in Semmes Alabama with the 11 gauge solid tops and we made 10 wagons for a nursery down the street with the 3/16 steel solid one piece tops. After about 12-14 years the 11 gauge started rusting around the edges and in some of the seams where the sheets were joined. The latter customer that spent a little more money in (steel cost) has been using the 3/16 solid one piece wagon tops since day one and they still look good. The 2 main runners supporting the wagon top are 5 inch channel and the top cross members are 3 inch channel placed on 24 inch centers. The outer edges of the tops are 5 inch x 1/4 inch flat bar notched on the corners . At any one time the wagon is not perfectly level , water can drain to the lowest point on the corner when plant material is being watered. This helps when plant orders are pulled days ahead before the truck arrives to pick up the orders. Another problem with some wagons is that many farm equipment manufactures make the running gears in a production run at the end of a season using up left over materials (drops). Most make the tongues from 11 gauge material and then formed into a channel in a press brake.
