Just got my new plasma this week and am going to be getting it fired up this weekend. I'm a little pressed for space in my garage and would like to find a cart that will not only hold that, but also my Miller 211 welder. I've found a few that have 2 shelves but none that appear to have enough space on the second one for the plasma cutter. The plasma is about 12x10x16 high, about the same size as the welder. Anyone have a cart like this or know where I might be able to find one? TIA
 
That cart is on sale for 39$ until the 30th look at their flyers on the site for a coupon.
 
This one might work. I saw it in the HF store the other week and should have bought it for my Miller 211. Next time I'm there I'm getting it...looks like one of the few good deals at HF.

I have that cart. I've got a Lincoln 180HD and a tank about 4ft tall plus extra wire spools and it seems to hold everything pretty stable. With the sale price or a coupon it's well worth it.
 
I have that cart too with a 4ft tank and a Hobart 187 on it....I think it is a piece of shit and the front roller casters are junk....not very sturdy, but for $40 what do you really expect. I have only used it on a smooth concrete shop floor as well, not on gravel or anything to mess up the already jacked casters. I have bought a better set of ball bearing swivel casters for it and that should help considerably.
 
i have the harbor freight welding cart linked above, first thing i did was get better casters up front. it holds my welder fine but i just bought a plasma cutter and it doesnt fit on the bottom shelf
 
fasteddieyj,
I bought the HF cart yesterday, it's worth the 40 bucks, even with the crappy front casters. Had to place a 1/2" thick spacer (plywood) under the Miller 211 so the side door clears the lip on the top shelf. Also, if your plasma cutter is the same size as your Miller 211, it will not fit in the bottom shelf. Well, maybe it would if you modified it.
