Don't get me going. I welded up a real nice kart to hold my welding bottles and hose while in High School as a project in Tech Cl*** and was beaten by several points by a girl who welded up metal flowers for her parents front yard. I am still using the kart after 40 years and I can bet the metal flowers are long gone not to say much about the Welding Instructor, the girl who welded up the flowers, the Tech Cl*** or the parents of raise a girl to weld up flowers when she could of welded up something useful. Boy, after many years, I do feel better. HA HA
I know you guy's are showing some beautiful work with your TIG carts, but I purchased one from Harbor Freight and for $44 bucks it can't be beat. The only thing I needed to do was buy a box of 1/4"-20 by 3/4" bolts to use in the ***embly because the Chinese hardware was ****. It came with casters, two shelves and hooks for the cables.
Mine is a POS tool box cabinet that I welded a bottle bracket on one end, a handle on the other, A cord reel for the extension cord, some brackets for clamps and the drawers hold extra wire, tools and some old weed that I am holding for a friend. KGON rocks! So do flatheads...with blowers
I ended up buying a second one of those cards and made a double decker to hold my miller mig machine and my Eastwood tig machine along with two gas bottles. And yea you are right the hardware was a mess.
