    Rough terain welder cart

    The title means just what it says
    my little Miller 210 mig welder has been suffering from a gravel floor for far too long
    very difficult to move around on the factory wheel kit
    So I dug a few items out of my classed for reuse pile of scrap and made a cart that can be moved around very easy.

    I started out with the front frame of a Toro walk behind mower

    I managed to make 2 hubs out of 1 so this gave me 4 hubs
    2 of these will be used on my torch cart later this week
    here I have just welded the hub into the center of a doughnut spare tire these can be bought for next to nothing but I had 2 the same size just laying around

    the finished cart may never win any beauty contests but it is very functional
