Made a mobile welding rig that’s working out pretty well!

I run my cables and hoses out of the doors and acces my welders, air compressor and generator without having to jump in and out.

I didn't see them in the full down position so didn't know. Very nice set up to work from. I'm running through my mind if I can have enough power to run my 220v powder coating oven and can be mobile doing that anywhere.

I’m learning as I go posting pics and not sure if it’s my internet that’s the issue lol.

That would be cool idea! Depends on the size of the oven. And generator size.

I see a Y pipe, so I'd imagine they're STACKS!

yeah this is seriously an awesome idea. my dad had chopped the back half of a pickup off and made that into a trailer and it was a portable welding trailer, and this reminds me of that combined with my passion for bus building. very cool! AND youre from MN too.
