Custom 6061 Weld Cart

I don't remember if I posted this here or not, but I made a custom weld cart to hold our XMT 465 multi process power source and S-74DX wire feeder.

Before photos.....





Initially it looked goofy, but I had a long term plan firmly in place and I am VERY happy to say that it is finally complete.

One very important thing I have learned in building custom "stuff" ahead of time is that published dimensions by the manufacturer are guestimates at best. It really is best to wait until you have the product in hand.

As such, the cart is not perfect, yet even so I don't think I could be any happier with how it turned out.

Finished version.....



















I am really proud of how this turned out.....best estimate is around 20k in equipment.
