    It has casters. But the cabinet is over 4ft long when assembled. So that is why it is so difficult to move. Instead of just moving 1 welder and tank you are in essence moving 3 units with 2 tanks all at once. It really isn't intended to be easily maneuvered. As it is more for stationary work.

    For the cost and space it takes up, you are almost better of purchasing two smaller cats and keeping things more portable.

    Hello @colinb17 long time no talk... I finally did away with the wooden welding cart from several years ago... but it did serve me well.

    Just got to thinking about the grief I caught when I made that thing and showed you the picture.

    Your new fancy build inspired me to breathe some life back into my truck. Especially with your insane steering wheel. I couldn't go that crazy, but think I found a happy medium with my new wheel.

    Thanks! It feels great while driving on road. Interested to see how it translates while I'm wheeling. As I tend to grip the wheel completely different once off road.

    Wrapped up the latest mod today. Makes this exhaust version 5...

    Got a SubZero Fab equal length y pipe from @906taco and installed it.

    Then redid the rest of of the exhaust with a resonator and Magnaflow muffler with all new stainless pipe. Decided to go for a passenger side exit this time.


    My tig welding may not win me any awards, but it got the job done...

    The interior refresh is complete! Got my new custom ordered @Clazzio seatcovers installed to finish things off.


    Not to bad for a 13.5 year old truck, if I say so myself!
