I've written some fairly extensive notes on the subject. I posted them
in two short articles on Mel Wright's website on busker organs. The
more recent one is
Carts for Small Organs by Wallace Venable
http://www.melright.com/busker/jsart98.htm
It follows about five years of experience with the one described in
Box-Cart for a Grind Organ
http://www.melright.com/busker/jsart67.htm
Since I wrote the "Carts for Small Organs" piece I have constructed one
along the lines of the folding cart. I don't have a photo of it posted,
but it is the blue cart in two COAA Rally photo collections:

The Mel Wright website also has another design:
