Looking for some ideas /advice for a cab dolly . Now that my welder is all hooked up Im anxious to get going on this rusty ol' cab that I want to fix up. Having no experience welding, I figure this would the perfect project as I was going to scrap it.
I picked up four 6in hard wheel swivel castors. So I guess my question is would 1 1/2inch sq tubing be strong enough for a cart or would that be over kill? Any ideas/pics for mounting would also be appreciated. Heres a pic of some test welds.I will post more pics as I go.Thanks guys
