WELDING CART PLANS

Welding Cart Project and Plans 
Welding trucks that you purchase at Northern device or Harbor cargo or different spots can be pretty modest and unstable. 
The majority of them are made for 115 V mig welders or little plasma cutters and won't hold a major welding machine without a portion of the machine looming over the front rack. 
So I chose to make my own welding cart....and if all works out in a good way, I may make a few of them. 
I will utilize inch and a half square tubing 1/8 divider thickness. 
… And the explanation I am utilizing this square tubing is on the grounds that it was free.

Why I picked 1-1/2" 11 ga square tubing for this welding truck 
Free is acceptable. 
Despite the fact that 1-1/2" 11 ga square tubing is somewhat heavier than it should be, too hefty is superior to excessively light... 
There is no execute like needless excess. 
The main slight issue is that it has some light rust on it from being outside for a month or two. So I chose to give a 3M bristle circle a shot it to eliminate rust and hot moved factory scale and it turned out to be extraordinary. 
A companion of mine informed me regarding it and I discovered one on Amazon for around 25 dollars so I got one. 
I have attempted bunches of various plates and wheels to eliminate factory scale and the majority of them load up after just a couple of moments and afterward quit working. A wire wheel works alright from eliminating light rust yet for plants scale, a wire wheel simply doesn't work quite well ... what's more it slings wire fibers and sticks in your dress in the absolute worst places. You feel me? 
However, this 3M bristle circle is an alternate creature. It doesn't stack up. The one I utilized was an earthy colored 36 coarseness and I think it has clay particles installed in the splines. 
However long you don't get an edge it keeps going a genuinely prolonged stretch of time. What's more, works admirably eliminating factory scale and never stacks up. 
So in the wake of eliminating the rust I cut all the pieces on a slash saw that has a place with a companion. I owe him another 14" plate now. 
I am utilizing a Stronghand installation point welding table. What's more, for outlining little tasks like this it is a period and work saver. On the off chance that I needed to do 50 of these it would truly spare a huge amount of time. 
The Fxturepoint table is a light obligation particular fixturing table. 
It's a lot lighter obligation than the substantial BuildPro table with a more slender table top and the openings are punched rather than machined. 
So exactness isn't exactly equivalent to the heavier obligation assemble star table. 
Nonetheless, it's pretty darn exact. 
Fixturing the base hold of the welding truck 
Furthermore, it's anything but difficult to set up a 90° point anyplace on the table and brace down anyplace on the table also. My edge came out dead nuts square. 
The components of the base of this welding truck are 36" x 18" so you can see that essentially takes up the whole length of the table top. 
I will probably construct two more retires simply like the base aside from a little shorter like something close to 24 to 30 inches .... And afterward to attach them out and out with riser pieces that are around 18 inches in length. 
The base rack will give enough space to a tig cooler , and the other two racks will hold a Tig machine and a major sack plate. 
I am doing whatever it takes not to construct the mother of all welding trucks here.... In any case, I do need it to look decent so I requested some aluminum track plate for the decks....And likewise to make a few spots to hold the Tig light and ground brace link. 
Since the truck is 18 inches wide it ought to have the option to hold two gas chambers ....owners model chambers that is. Furthermore, that is imperative to me since I might want to have an argon chamber just as a helium chamber on a TIG welding truck. 
I may even choose to put my warm bend fabricator 252 on this truck and having enough width for 2 chambers should let me to utilize an argon chamber just as a 75/25 cylinder....for lift circular segment TIG or spool weapon, just as short out mig. 
I didnt need to go any more extensive than 18 inches only for the explanation that I need to have the option to move it around the shop without any problem. 
I trust everything meets up great and ends up being a truly cool looking welding truck. I will attempt to post some kind of drawing with measurements when it's set. 
I utilized the fixturepoint table to fit this initial segment of the truck together and I know most people dont have that extravagance so the following pieces will presumably be built out with a table and square or perhaps on the shop floor. 
Also, the remainder of the casings will be mig welded or stick welded.
