So I talked about a new cart design in another post, but now that I started, I wanted to start an actual build post. Got the concept/mock-up done today, should start on the base tomorrow and have it functional next weekend, though I'm sure it'll take longer to get 100% done.

I decided to use grid shelving, I got a ton from a friend, set some up in the garage, have plans to use another 5 panels or so, and had a few left. The versatility of hook positioning, the number of cables, leads, hoses, tools for the cart made it a no-brainer.



The base concept that brought me to this point ^





Mocked up with one of the two welders (MIG goes on the other side so I can open the door), will have a toolbox hard mounted on the bottom with a tray and three drawers.

Looks like the tanks will have to go behind the upright to extend the wheelbase and to allow the welders to sit far enough in.



Thanks to my boy for helping hold things up before they're welded, I'm hoping to get him welding on this project.

Still working through the front end, I'm set on using the wheels I have, I still have an idea on how I want it to work (no, not like a wagon) either of the two ideas will be neat.

Yes, the welders will be reinforced and strapped in, as will the bottles.
