Portable Welding Cart
 ✖  |
"I needed a table or bench to do welding work, and I wanted it to be somewhat portable so I could use it for other work. Rather than build a big welding table, I decided to make use of a couple of heavy duty wire shelves that I already had. I can roll my portable welding cart wherever I need it or right up to my welder," says Chris Kornkven of Helenville, Wis.
The cart rides on four caster wheels and measures 48 in. long by 24 in. wide, with 60-in. long, 1-in. pipes used for the legs. The base of the cart is made from 1 by 1 1/2-in. angle iron and is handy for storing scrap metal. The shelves Kornkven used have round metal sleeves at each corner, which made it easy to mount the shelves on the pipes. He used split ring collars for the shelf supports, which allow him to raise or lower the shelves as needed.
He welded an angle iron crossbar on top of one side of the cart and tach welded pegboard hooks to hang tools.
"I plan on welding another angle iron crossbar with pegboard hooks and might add a work light on top," says Kornkven.
