my first project with my HH 187

[JoeD]

Ok fellas, here’s my first project using my HH 187. All the materials were recycled from a local scrap yard, as you can see the angle iron was pretty rusted...



Nothing a wire brush wheel could’t handle…The cart handle is a piece of SS pipe that I bent and sand blasted for a dull finish...



The trays are ½” plywood covered with 1/8” black rubber gasket material.
I need to buy large hooks and place them under the top tray so I can hung the helmets, cords and gun.







the bottom tray will be the home for a plastic "orange" tool box with extra accessories.

Again, nothing fancy yet very functional…and inexpensive.

Man that's a beautiful rig! The bottom shelf is a good idea. I have a little metal tackle box I keep my mig things in but it don't have nowhere to sit on the cart I made. I wasn't thinking ahead.

nice job i likes it

Tisk, tisk, I'm going to have to take 2 points off your grade for using wood in a welding cart!





(You get 5 points extra credit for neatness!!)

[Me!]

that handle is worth 2 points
I like the sand blasted finish, I have been on hold with my truck back rack due to not getting the correct "look", but I like that
And its a LOT faster than polishing!

[jamlit]

nice fit & finish work.

If you give all your project that much attention, you should have some very nice lloking ones.

Thanks guys

Not home depot paint it's leftover from a garden trailer I built 7 years ago (also from recycled metal)

Hey, I need to detail some how, otherwise it would look like a pile of scrap welded together ...literally!

Your cart looks nice, where did your wheels come from for it?

[Tinbasher]

From the same place the angle iron came from...a local scrao yard.

I'm also building a cooker on wheels....okaaaaaaaay I confess...
most of the steel came from the same scrap yard...dirt cheap. Well that's a horse of another color
