Things You'll Need
Instructions
Measure your conveyor belt rollers. For this example, we'll use a width of 24 inches. Cut two sections of angle steel stock with round perforated holes, used for industrial shelving. Use 2-inch flanges. You may be able to find this at home centers or may need to order it from a welding supply store. Use a cutoff wheel and angle grinder to make your cuts.
Cut two more sections of angled shelf steel 30 inches long.
Cut four pieces of square steel tube stock 2-inches -- the same height as your angle material.
Lay your angled material on a work table in a rectangular pattern so the vertical flanges of the 90-degree angled flanges is on the inside of the rectangle. Set your 2-inch square tube pieces in each of the four corners vertically. These will become the fasteners for your corner.
Mark through the corner holes onto the 2-inch squares with permanent marker -- one hole for each edge of all four corners, or eight holes.
Drill the holes you marked with a drill press and steel-cutting drill bit. Use a bit the same diameter as your holes.
Bolt the corners or your brackets to the 2-inch square pieces, forming a solid frame for your rollers. Use washers and nylon locking nuts to ensure the mechanical connection does not come loose as the rollers are used.
Bolt two conveyor belt rollers through the holes in the frame. The rollers will span the 2-foot width, be parallel with the edges of the frame and approximately 10 inches apart from one another -- enough distance for the back tire to be cradled between them.
Place the front tire in the corner of a wall or secure it against a flat wall; place the rollers under the rear tires.
