not just for welding job but plumbing and wood butchery...... I store the tools in a certain stores stacking green trays..... one has the planers, jigsaw, elec drill etc etc... so electrical tools, plumbing etc etc...spares for all the trades...... I just need to grab the trays I need and go.....it does cost a few extra quid to set up but soon pays for itself.... I have what I call a breakdown kit of tools....has everything from pipe grips to screwdriver bits..spanners....to a huge 1/2 socket set Whit, Unified and metric....even a small oil less comp..... the two Stanley boxes are on wheels which help......these tools are a double to whats in the w/shop.... and are NEVER ever touched during normal duties..... the hard part is U just gotta make sure everything is put BACK in its place, everytime...... don't do enough now for a dedicated van..... it all goes back in the back of my T4.....easy....
One thing you need to do before you travel ( unless you have your own generator ) is to find out if the power supply available at the location is adequate for your welder ? Also, will you need an extension cord ?
It's been my first concern Asked and figured out that. Only 3kW single phase at the powermeter . 100+ meters distance between the power meter and the switch panel , other good 70 meters of wires to arrive to the closest socket to the road And other 30 good meters between this socket and the road . So I've decided to awake my engine driven welder from its sleep . Way better in terms of performance and surely safer for me , wouldn't imagine to have to replace 200 meters of wires if the welder need so much power to cause them to start burning . That's a good tip because move an engine driven is more expensive than a small inverter welder
