Sounds like it doesn't require much astro_nutt and jjjnettie. Just a base big enough to hold it to the back and something to keep the scope there. And here I was thinking they're all too small.

The picture didn't come up, netwolf, but I think I know what you're talking about. I dismissed them because the I'd have to remove and replace the wheels with something a lot larger and pneumatic to handle the drop off the verandah (only about 50-100mm depending where I go off - there's a row of plants blocking the lowest point) and onto the grass. Also, and related to the first part, the handles don't seem to me to provide enough leverage - the advantage of a hand truck is that I can gingerly put the weight to the back and then move up or down uneven ground. I haven't tried it, so it might work better.
