Soap-box cart |
 | | A typical soap-box cart is constructed of wood, and has four wheels, arranged as a fixed rear axle, and a steerable front beam axle - usually with a very simple single central pivot. |
 | | A seat is arranged at the back, and perhaps the seat area is enclosed, as in the original soap-box design. |
 | | Steering is typically effected using foot control, or perhaps using a rope connected to the ends of the steerable beam (which can then double as a useful manual pulling device). |
