I have a migmate 120 and want to do a simple but useful/practical first project with it. What was your first project? What would you suggest for a first job?
My first Mig project if I remember correctly was a 1977 Vauxhall Cavalier in 1986! There are a few good threads on here for welding carts and trolleys, have a search through for inspiration.
There's an extensive thread on this very subject, you'll be spoiled for choice https://www.mig-welding.co.uk/forum...lding-cart-trolley.54651/page-12#post-1207103 Don't forget the pics of yours
You'll soon get tired of bending to reach the 'pull handle', and not having the tools you need right at hand. Crack on and get a 'proper' trolley built, you'll thank us eventually. Great practise too......
It’s having to move it when working on a car or bigger project unless you have the longest torch lead known to man
The First project must Be something that can help you during welding So a welder cart can be an option An horse vise another option (I have to make one ) My first project was a chipping hammer because I stick weld It last me 4 years of abuse ,the other day the weld did break down ,and now I have to repair it because is my first thing I put together and is very important to me ,is the classic inexpensive thing that you can also kill someone if he try to steal it or break Nothing more than 50 cents of rebars but is one of my most important thing I have 1 brass ground clamp 2 quick vise clamp This two are a remember of a friend of mine that is gone after combat the cancer 3 my chipping hammer This three things can make me in condition to kill if someone try to steal them
