Hey Justin. I would love to see an update on the cart with a box tour. Pros/Cons of the setup and how you laid out your drawers. I'm waiting on my kit to be delivered so I can start the build.
I love this. All-a-Cart (ZTFab's manufacturer) is charging $310, delivered, for something I would expect to pay $100 for. Think of this: the Harbor Freight cart, with tax, only costs $10 more than the ZTFab kit, which is basically two unpainted brackets and some wheels. There is no way that makes sense, even with China factored in. Today I went to my metal supplier and spent $32. Tomorrow, I will have to spend another $10 or so on another piece. By the time I pay for paint and bolts, I should be into this for around $85, plus the tool chest. So $405 instead of $640. God bless All-a-Cart if people want to pay that kind of money for something they could be building themselves. It's not for me. I plan to build two carts and finally get my welding stuff of the table and floor.
I just received one of Pauls (ZTFab) kits. The dual 9" bottle with 4 cord hangars. This kit is like art work. Custom CNC milled and cut. It is on a whole different level. That kind of metal work cost large. After I tig it up and powder coat it it will far surpass most home built kits. I am a geenyus by trade but don't feel bad I come to youtube once and a while to hang with the regulars.
Just before seeing your video I decided to convert a Craftsman rolling tool cabinet inherited from my dad.....18"x30"; 3 full width drawers and full width bottom storage with pull down drawer. Going to use double 2x10s bolted to original caster mounting points beneath cabinet extending from both ends to form dual tank platforms for mig/tig and oxy-acet tanks. Original casters reattached to 2x10s beneath tanks. Will add cable/hose holders; capped PVC rod holders; HF welding table top hinged from rear with drop down legs; multiple 2"receiver hitch tubes to accept removable vise and other accessories. Going to check out your kit source for pre-fab cable holders etc individually. Thanks for video.
The corners of the box are wide open since the welders aren't very big. I would just build a rack that attaches to them and gives a shelf for the plasma right above the welders. You already have the box so may as well keep all consumables in one location so you aren't chasing all over the shop. If I was using small welders like that I would probably go for a kit like this. Big time saver and looks robust. Nice vid and well done.
Great idea for a cart, keeping all the welding bits together and draws for clamps, rods(stick electrodes) etc. I'd need to weigh up all the bits so not to overload it though, don't want it collapsing lol.
Haven't read all the comments but wondering if stacking the 2 machines side by side on the top is going to allow for proper ventilation of the units???
I just checked on Ztfabs website and the cad drawing has the everlast tig and cooler side by side on a us general box. I will grab both next time i head down south to the US and start the build! Thanks for the video!
Do you really think this is better than other options for a comparable price ($550)? The HF heavy duty cart that can hold several welders is only $340. I'm curious because I want a welding cart with enclosed drawers (to keep out dust) and I'm exploring the best options.
WHOA!!! That cart kit is absurdly expensive!!!! Check out my previous comment regarding how to modify a tool cabinet as a welding cart for maybe $50 maximum. Not to mention the heartbeats to weld your kit up.
I had the same idea for my welding cart and loved it until I put the welder on top of the toolbox and realized it’s very difficult to weld under a car because you lose a lot of torch lead length due to the height of the box itself. If your just bench welding it’s fine I guess. Great product just too tall to be functional.
@@JustinTBraun I got that info from other RUclipsrs doing cart reviews. They say Harbor freight sells replacement drawers and that one deep one will fit where 2 shallow ones did.
Your fast movement of the camera makes me seasick. You should PUT the camera on a tripod and shoot MOST of your scenes. YOU do not need to be IN the video except occasionally. Your voice is sufficient.
Some stuff gets the tripod but not very often. Takes a lot of extra time to get shots like that. If I was doing this as my daily job I most definitely would since I would have the extra time.

Great build. I've been seeing this mod around the way and I think you finally convinced me that I'm going to have to try it.
Thanks! It was fun to build and I hope it helps others who are just starting with welding!
Excelente 👌 Me dio una buena idea 💡 para aprovechar una cajonera de chapa que tengo olvidada en un rincón Gracias Justin

That should be a rad setup! 🤘🤘
Thank you for sharing. Gives me good idea on getting my set up
The US General green matches the Everlast pretty good. Nice setup.
Great idea. Might have to make a cart like that for my shop.
It's a good investment!
Thanks for posting this video!! I just bought the same kit.
Thks for the video I ordered one today ! And a 215 Miller
OFF the HOOK welding cart Dude....................Wonderful Job !!
Also LOVE your Dogs , there Wonderful also !
Thanks! Much appreciated! 🤘🤘
That's pretty awesome! Can't wait to order mine.

I've thought about doing that. Thanks!
I like it didcbuy the tool box now need the zt fab
👍🤘
Nice set up
Thank you

Heck yea!!
I love it. I should paint my cart to match my everlast welders too.
Heck yea! I love green
This thing is mint!
😁🤘
👌
Thanks for showing something like this. Great idea
Welcome!
Did you bolt the welders to the toolbox or just let it sit up there?
They are just sitting up top. I have never had any issues with them moving around.
This was cool, Now I need this for my tool box!!
Its works pretty good. Makes a good all in one setup.
Interesting. I guess you could remove the bottom 2 drawers so you could add a water cooler for your tig machine.
That's a great idea! Been thinking about where I would put the water cooler.
Love your videos
Thanks. I appreciate the support!
Haven't read all the comments but wondering if stacking the 2 machines side by side on the top is going to allow for proper ventilation of the units???
That's a bad ass set up looks good
Thank you!
Nice looking set up👍
Thank you!
Looks pretty damn good!
Hey Thanks!
Love extreme green, nice job!
Its fantastic! Thanks
Were did u get those tig tubes ?
Good idea man! Super cool and i might have to use your idea 👍
Heck yea!
Great channel, what's your opinion of the Eastwood MIG 250 welder?
Thanks. I've had my eastwood 250 for about 7 years now and absolutely love it. Would definitely recommend.
Really looks great. Where did you get the toolbox and kit from
Thanks. Ztfab
Harbor freight box
Awesome kit i have a 255ext from everlast with their cooler, do you think it would fit side by side like you did?
I would guess yes. I don't think size wize they are much bigger.
I just checked on Ztfabs website and the cad drawing has the everlast tig and cooler side by side on a us general box. I will grab both next time i head down south to the US and start the build! Thanks for the video!
Heck yea!
I done that with a tool box for a weld cart with out a kit I love what I made
Heck yea! I did this to hopefully show people that are just getting into welding that you can make one pretty easy.
Thanks for the idea's
👍😁
Would this kit work on the 44in box ?
I'm not sure. I would be interested to find out though.
Very nice! Can you put links in the description of the kit and tool box you used?
Yes they are at the top now
great vid
Friggin great! Love it!!!
🤘🤘
Pretty cool
Heck yea!
Where can I find the parts kit that you attach to the cabinet?
I put the links up top in the comments

They are not to terrible.
Love it nice job.
Thank you!
Great vid 👍🏾
Thanks!
Awesome!
🤘🤘
So after 6 months you still happy with it? Just upgraded my everlast to a 250ex unit plus a water cooler so thinking about going this route.
Yes I am. Has been working very well.
How do you like the mig 250?
I like it a lot. I've had it for about 5 years now and it has done awesome. Definitely would recommend them.
What Everlast is that?
amzn.to/2rgDVo3
Do you have any experience in tig welding exhaust?
Some.
Where did you purchase the kit
Ztfab
link for the zt fab seems to be broken
Ztfab.com
Now let’s do a homemade one!!!
I need more room! Haha
All said and done with welders, how much?
I will have to add it all up. I got my mig a long time ago.
Very nice!
😁
Awesome...
🤘
What’s the links for the cart kit
Ztfab.com
You should do a tour of all you bixes in you shop
I really need to soon!!
Sweet!
Yes!

If your just bench welding it’s fine I guess. Great product just too tall to be functional.
That's why the car lift is handy to have 👍
As well as longer leads.
Awesome
🤘
Link the kit please

I need get better at welding first, then build cart. Can't have it fall apart on me.
Most definitely!
Nice my friend
Thanks 🤘
How about links to the materials...
Ztfab.com
Any reason this wouldn’t fit on the 44in box?
I'm not sure if it will or not. Would be neat to find out.
I think Harbor freight sells different (deeper) drawers that will fit in place of 2 or 3 shallow drawers. Room for helmet etc.
Where do they sell the drawers separate?
@@JustinTBraun I got that info from other RUclipsrs doing cart reviews. They say Harbor freight sells replacement drawers and that one deep one will fit where 2 shallow ones did.
And the prices you paid for everything?????????
250 for cart kit, 200 for toolbox
Buy a miller multimatic and that way you don’t need two welding machines.
But then I'd have to buy another welder lol.
hi
🙋♂️
$250.00 for that!I like'm Built,not Bought!
😮

That is just stupid.😂
