    I've used a couple different rests/stands, but really like "Shorty". Rolls smooth and easy, is very light, the handle lets me "oomph" it up over cords and stock, its close to the ground, so putting long stock in it, then up on a rest is less of a hassle. I roll it to the front door of my shop, and let the sparks and grit fly to the outside. Its just one of those cheapie "convertible"hand trucks, I like it so well, I have discontinued using my MIG/Plasma/Gas Bottle cart I so proudly built as a first project, and scoot my MIG around on its own little guy, have the tank mounted to the wall, with a20 foot gas hose to follow around.
    Mucho Easier to use.

    I'm not trying to start anything here as this is not the place..........but what Sundown III stated is true and well after seeing you ask questions over and over again that you could have gotten the answer by doing some work for yourself....well it gets to me a little bit...... I have no problem helping if I can but I get bothered by what you are doing........ it comes off to me as laziness ........ not that it will break your heart but I will in the future refrain from offering any info to you that you can find for yourself......if you have a problem / question that is hard to find or hasn't been covered over and over again then I will weigh in if I can help.......feel free to pm me if you wish to discuss this any further as I said this is not the place to get into this.

    34me you can ask away. I have the patience to answer. Most site search functions suck and give you everything but what you need.

    I have a pic of one that someone else made and I thought it was a keeper. If I can find it I will post it.

    I like berrys too. Neat package if you have the room..

    I think there are WAY too many 'What's the best plasma cutter for the money' and 'Which mig should I buy'-repetition posts too, but that's the beauty of this site. Everywhere else that ISN'T tolerated and some members here are members at the other sites as well. I think some just lose sight of this and it comes across as frustration. Being new and asking redundant, over-saturated questions is part of being new. We've all been (and some like me are still) there and that has to be taken into account.

    That being said, there IS a search feature here that should be used first. Most of the stupid questions I have I answer myself by using it and prevent the repost of a repost of a repost.... Helps keep me from having death threats made against me I think.

    If your search doesn't turn up what you want, post a question. SOMEONE will answer....eventually. Or someone like me will post a smart@ss comment.

    Lots of guys here have killer knowledge, check the other sites where they post under the same names and you'll see. They aren't being jerks cuz they hate you, the repetition of reposts gets to you. We just all need to remember this is Hobart's site and things are a little more open to the beginner here.

    Nuff said by me....what was the question?
    I NEED MORE COWBELL!!!


    'Red' Powcon 300ST (no torch yet)
    (ok, not really a 'Red'... )
    'Blue' Miller 35 (older than me and runs great), Thunderbolt AC arc (ditto)
    'Craftsman' AC arc (who made this originally?)
    O/A x 2 (both smaller than I'd like)
    14" Milwaukee chopper
    20t HF press (crap, but works)
    Buffalo forge w/ blower
    Alot of pumps!
