== Hobcart ==

A hobcart is a type of cart traditionally used in various regions for the transportation of goods. It is characterized by its simple construction and ease of use, making it a popular choice for small-scale farmers and merchants.

Design and Construction[edit | edit source]

The hobcart typically features a wooden frame with two large wheels, which allows it to be easily maneuvered by a single person or a small animal. The cart's bed is usually flat, providing ample space for carrying a variety of items, from agricultural produce to household goods.

Historical Use[edit | edit source]

Hobcarts have been used for centuries in rural areas, where their simplicity and durability made them an essential tool for daily life. They were particularly common in regions with limited access to more advanced forms of transportation.

Modern Use[edit | edit source]

While the use of hobcarts has declined with the advent of modern vehicles, they are still found in some rural and developing areas. They are valued for their low cost and ease of maintenance.
