As title really, need to know width and depth.

Basically after a welding trolley for my new welder and the clarke one looks like it might be spot on.

Thanks,
David

I thought the first job when you got a new welder was to fabricate a welding trolley for it ?

Lol

Yeah I thought about it, then thought it might ost me as much to build one as the £40odd that the clarke one is.

Will consider it though.

Thanks for the info Mike Mine is 305hx248wx419l so sounds like the clarke isnt the best of fits.

What did you buy in the end?

Here's my mig on it's trolley. Lovely little thing, the trolley is only for it to stand on in the shed as it is easily carried if I need to use it anywhere else. I did make the trolley with the welder and it didn't cost anything like the cost of a trolley as it was from my scrap pile and I only bought the wheels (£6 plus postage from ebay)

What about cutting the wheeled base bit off am old office chair. Weld a frame to this from so angle and voila!

Locost even if it doesn't look amazing!

Cheers,

Seen it done before and not just for welder trolleys.
- Can pick them up FOC with a bit of thought usally.

Locost/retrochic is a good look!
