    Default Custom tig cart

    Here is the start of my custom tig cart. I've taken some ideas from the crazy cart built by specialty repairs.
    One design flaw in all carts I've found is the drawer always opens into the cables, that's why this cart has a side opening drawer. Will post more pics as cart progresses. I apologize in advance for the pics being the wrong orientation.

    Aside from getting a crank in my neck from viewing the pic's...everything looks good to me...there is no right or wrong cart..what ever works for a fellow is the answer...

    Best thing about that cart is really smart choice of equipment you have on it,,,I have the same my self...

    I will say you will probably rue the day you put pneumatic tires on the cart because it is almost impossible to keep air in them....and in a welding shop...impossible.

    Looks good Wrdsk, welcome to the forum. Is that 1/4" or does the camera just add 10lbs?

    I take it Princess Auto had the same sale as Harbor Freight on those tyres, I was actually planning on using them as well.
    Penncrest Buzzbox - Infinite amp control! Man the 70's were good.
    Everlast Powerplasma 60 - Reliable unit, cuts well.
    Everlast i-MIG 250P w/spoolgun - Really smooth, plenty of cajones.
    Everlast 250EXT - Sometimes it just takes a kick in the balls...

    On the hole for the power cord - what did you use to grommet the hole? It looks nice, and I've got a project coming up where I need to do something similar.

    Cheers,

    Did you fab the torch holder? Or something laying around, like an old gold cart rim or something.
