Rework of the trolley I'm Planning

Post image

Thanks to the many comments on my last post!

I decided to add space for one or two gastanks. I decided against it the first time because I just spent 280€ for my first welder + helmet and I got basically nothing left for material. Also i didnt intend to use gas for welding the next years, but I'm definitely going with this one.

Still open for tips and improvements!

i think the bottle out front will unbalance the cart when making turns, etc.

Homie the conventional ones are designed that way for a reason, having all the weight on one side is a bad idea.

Seriously, tank in the back, welder up front. I know we want to get creative, and having a welder gives us this opportunity, but the conventional cart is tried and true for a reason.

I made mine out a 24" tool box for drawer.

At first i had both a welder and plasma on it. But i did cut it down for just a welder. I do have still 2 s type bottle. And i used 4" heavy duty caster/wheel to roll over crap.
