    cylinder carts

    I am interested in buliding a cylinder cart for my oxygen/ acetylene cutting outfit, and I was wandering if anyone out there have any unique designs that they would like to share so that I can figure out what I should be building.

    I just use an old furniture dollie and strap the tanks to that. Not real fancy, but it works.

    Here is a link showing how to make gas welding cart. It's real commonly used type of cart.

    http://www.metalwebnews.com/howto/cart1/cart.html

    A local dealer is selling more of a soft ground cart that uses folding spare tires that are common at junk yards. The hub for that cart is about 5"X5"X1/4" plate welded to 6"X 1" pipe. Washers and cotter pins hold hub on axle. The plate has holes for bolts to mount wheel/tire and hole for axle. The rest of the bottle cart is a bit beefier than one in llink.

    Like Zach suggested...simple is easy. This one is made so that the dollie can still be used if needed.

    Just an example:
