Omnium style one with a small headtube up front and a steering linkage (is that the plan for yours @M_V ?)
Yup. That was the rose joints arrived this morning so got it all put together and just carried a 20kg box to the post office on it and can confirm, it has made it an entirely different bike.
Wish I'd gone with this design from the start as I would have had a continual tube from bb to front headtube If I had.

I can confirm that the handling on my DIY cycletruck was dire (terrible wobble loaded or unloaded) until I significantly reduced the size of the rack. Rides well now but cargo capacity is a lot lower. Still more stable than a front rack on a fork. Next cargo bike will be an Omnium style one with a small headtube up front and a steering linkage (is that the plan for yours @M_V ?)
Before and after.
