I think the cart Should be the 1st project. Kudos to you. The only thing missing is the Big Barn Diamond Plate Fenders over the tires.. Nice work and good for you !!!

That's cool. Looks alot like one (a little nicer than mine) that I made out of scraps 12 years ago when I bought my first welder. I will try to post a pic.
Nice looking cart! Obviously you take pride in your work
. I need to get around and build one.

That hobart weighs 70 lbs... I needed something to wheel it around.. Fenders will be added when I can come across some scrap plate/flat bar..
Thanks

Nice work I guess I'mnot the only one that believes in big wheels. I see so many people build nice tables carts etc. and put cheese little wheels on them.:confused3: How does the tricycle set up work? Is it tippy? When I build any thing that has to do with my mig stuff I always weld a piece of pipe on a angle to stick the gun in . Good luck. :drink:

I was afraid of it being tippy but the weight of the bottle over the rear axle keeps it planted pretty well. My reason for big wheels is it will be used on our ranch at times rolling over dirt.. and such
Pipe for gun is a great idea...

Very nice job! I built my MIG cart out of a shopping cart someone dumped down the road from our place ( No identifiers on it or I would have returned it!). After I got the cart built, I realized it must have been the very same cart I always got at our local WalMart. It was the one with a slightly bent frame, one wobbly caster and a wheel with a flat spot!! :thumbsup:
It has actually worked well but I won't be posting pics of it!

Here is mine.....
Wished I had used bigger wheels up front, but they are ok if floor relative clean (what ever that means) ... One thing I forgot was handle to drag it around by... So bolted one on, not the best but works... Also got large plastic tool box (at yard sale $2) that sits in lower shelf that holds "Stuff" (tools, tips, extra wire, PAM for antispatter, side cutters, you know stuff)....
Next project welding table...
