MIG welding cart steel frame photo 1
Primed frame, made almost entirely of 1"angle iron, except for the top handrail which is 1" square tubing all around. All metal is 1/8" thickness. The bottom angle iron pieces are oriented so the opening is narrowest at top. Therefore the bottom wood frame slides in from below, held in place by the bolts for the casters. Three hooks underneath will hang wiring and helmet. Front handrail at right is for dragging the cart forward, back rail protects and stabilizes the small argon bottle. I should have drilled the holes for the casters before this stage, as it was awkward to balance the whole frame on a drill press.
