Thread: welding carts---why the rearward tilt?

    Re: welding carts---why the rearward tilt?

    Ok, put a coat of red paint on it last weekend. here's two shots:



    and here is its home:



    Just gotta get a top on it.

    all in all, it was a worthwhile project. i definitely learned that all plans go to hell once you start welding---well, things did not go perfectly as planned once I got the wheels on

    after i painted it, i sorta had "painter's remorse" the next day. that is to say, there was something cool and kind of rustic (maybe thats not the right word) about something that obviously looked like I chopped up scrap, welded it together, and stuck some wheels on it!

    Ok, got the top welded on. It's not quite a welding table, not thick enough. But good enough for what I need it to do. Thanks to Lance for letting me cut this piece at his place:



    Here's the overhang for clamping whatever:


    Tack welded on all 4 corners and finally done

    Cool beans man. I used my table this weekend and love it. I especially love having everything where I need it.

    oh yeah, its nice to wheel something over as opposed to dragging both sumsabeotches over to what you want to weld!

    I say you use triangular reinforcements for the front wheels. This way they have a bit more support.
