Your not gonna make one that works good in sand. On sand you'll sink not slide. If you somehow make wheels on the end of it, mabey like rollerblade wheels on packed dirt you can 12 it.

It might not look the best but mabey wheels of an old wagon would work. There alot bigger and would roll better.

all you need is a roundbar like a stock quad grab bar. its perfect i scrape in the mud grass dirt anything but its not really a scrape its more like a boink cuz it digs in alittle then bounces off the bar

just scrape your fender its way more gangsta than "scraping" dirt with a bar. When that bar digs in and tosses you, you will wish it was just a fender.

No offense to him or anything, but if he needs to ask how to make one, I doubt hes got the control to scrape the fender... plus maybe he wants to bar to save his *** so he can get good enough for scrapin the fender
