Re: DIY Welder cart configuration

Yes, I have a fire extinguisher can. The good thing is that where I am welding there is only concrete, nothing else, me the welder, metal and concrete. I don't weld in the shop room/box. The space is confined so I might reconfigure the cart to fit into the place, sometimes I might not even need the ...
