Mr Savage a quick tip when you are setting up for your jewelers torch, if you set both regulator's at 5 psi output then it makes dialing in your torch far simpler ( 40 years welding experience and that's how We we're taught as Apprentices doing lead burning/ welding) very similar torch, it's far easier to get yourself a hot neutral flame ,👍

The moment you mentioned building stuff off camera just for the sake of doing it for yourself, my first thought was "that's absolutely fair you can't film everything" and then you go and say you feel guilty about it? Listen here Mr Savage, we all respect you more than you know and want you to do whatever brings you happiness. If you want to build something just for the love of it and not for us, you damn well do it! It's not exactly like you don't spoil us enough with everything you do so please, guilt free, build for yourself.

Oxy fuel welding is my all time favourite form of welding. Its so cathartic, I get lost in the process. It breaks my heart they are no longer teaching it in trade schools where I am as I find it is the best way to teach someone what is happening when you weld due to how much it slows the process down.

Buddy, that looks INFINITELY safer than any solution I have seen. The only drawback is you can't drag it across a gravel lot to get to some broken down equipment. That's the only reason the old cart even exists. It's a somewhat happy medium. But in a shop with a proper floor I would probably require something like your setup.

I’d maintenance on the nuclear arsenal so my job has become a bit busy with recent events. (I promise we have no intention of launching them. Just a precaution). It has been so nice to come home and see your videos posted. Your personality and your voice just brings me back to my childhood. I grew up on the myth busters. Other kids watched dexter and SpongeBob while I watched the discovery channel all day. You can say I’m a bit of a nerd. But the mix of the show and this channel spawned my love for building. And maybe shooting guns and making things blow up but hey, how can you not love that. Love your stuff man. Keep up the always great videos and keep inspiring people the way you inspired me

I love the total rethink on the oxy as a front-back setup rather than a side by side apparatus. Of course, in industry the carts usually have large pneumatic tires for the fact that they're often wheeled around in literal dirt and mud, but that fact aside, there's no reason a shop cart can't be on 4 large castors like this. Further, oxy carts often have fork tine slots in the bottom and an engineered lifting point that extends above the cylinders so that they can be lifted via crane. Perhaps not super super useful in a workshop oxy, but mandatory on site in the mines and power plants. This front-back design could easily be tweaked and manufactured with steel and as is obvious, there's a bucket load of real estate either side of the cylinders. One could easily have 2 boxes on one side, to store PPE in one (gloves, jacket, hood) and consumables such as various tip sizes and the few tools required in another box. Then the other side could have a rack to store a few different oxy handsets, a 1.5m straight edge for a cutting guide, and a couple of jigs such as a hole cutting jig. In the industrial sector oxy sets are neglected and abused and only really used for rough cutting a narrow range of steel thickness, predominantly. However, that's not how they're used in a shop and it makes sense to have a cart with virtually all the tools you need for pretty much any oxy task so that you just grab it and go, rather having to rummage through a disorganized toolbox for the specifics of what you need. Hey, with this form factor you could easily put some Milwaukee packout mounts on the things to slap a clear lid parts sorter on one side and a couple stacking boxes on the other. That would definitely appeal to a certain kind of crowd.

I think for v2 I would add a gate for the acetylene tank as you did for the oxygen tank, and make the push/pull handle removable. I'd also make the width of the cart such that the gauges are inside the edge, so if the bottom clears it while moving the cart, it's far less likely the gauges/hoses will snag. I like very much how the wheels are done. Lowering the center of gravity like that makes it super stable. As another commenter mentioned, wheel brakes are essential.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I have no concerns about a wooden cart for an oxy-acetylene kit. The four swivel casters at the corners will help keep it upright and in place, most of the time. I agree with John K. that there is some concern that the unit could potentially travel on its own, but that could easily be fixed with locking casters, or a locking attachment to the cart. For a wooden cart, by the time you worry about it burning, I think you've already had way bigger concerns about the oxy-acetylene tanks exploding.

Instead of goggles I went with a clear faceshield with a flip down welding lens. The welding lens is blue rather than green (they call it "cobalt") and it works really well for me for making the flame and weld puddle stand out. The face shield means you get decent protection if you're grinding/cutting as part of your welding process. After a quick search, it looks like it's a Sellstrom S32161B.

Adam , Hi iv watched quite a few of your videos your man cave, WOW man have you gathered some really nice tools, lathe, Milling machine assoatied tooling, sockets, screwdrivers pliers, grips, i could go on an on, The BUT here is you have to stop gathering, and at some point have a clear out otherwise you will end up in the SAME position as i now find myself in, i am a tool aholic and a prolific purchaser of more tools from ebay. I have a large shed workshop in my back garden and a covered area in front of the double doors to this shed, it takes me 35 mins to clear stuff out of the way so I can get access into my shed, all because of the stuff i have gathered over the years. I recall the video of you having to shift tons of stuff to get your old mill out and your New mill in, do you see where I am heading with this first comment from me to you, I think your more than capable of doing, making, building anything that comes along, please don't hem yourself in to the point where you can't freely move about your workshop. I have a lovely big old lathe I can't get near because of all the stuff I've been gathering over several years. So my plan this yr is to de clutter and get my life back Stan in Scotland.

The best welding goggles aren't goggles at all. They are a shade 5 face shield (from Fibremetal, in particular). That cart has some nice aspects to it, but I see one issue that I worry about. That is that the casters are small and hard. They will have trouble with a finishing nail lying on the floor. The big wheels on the old cart are much more capable of dealing with that particular issue.

The only issue I see is if you end up exchanging for a tank that's too large in diameter for your cart. I also built a wooded welding cart and I sized it for the bottle I had, assuming they were a standard size. When I exchanged it for a full bottle, I found the new bottle was larger and didn't quite fit. Luckily my bottle is secured with a strap, so it's not a huge deal, it's still secure.

Ok I’ll be the buzzkill. If you’re storing Oxygen and Acetylene tanks when stored and not in use, need to be stored 3 meters apart or if stored on the same cart, needs to have a firewall barrier rated at 5’ high and fire-resistance rating of at least 1.5hrs. But hey, cool cart!

Yup, Needs a barrier between the tanks and that paint isn't going to keep slag from burning through wood=Fuel.

I wanted to comment about the firewall too. We had to add a divider on several oxy fuel carts where I’m employed as well as the Taylor-Dunn carts that we have oxy fuel tanks installed on. I also agree with the need for flash back arresters and a way to lock it in place.

I don't have a problem with it, it's your shop. It likely meets your current need. I will say a few things though that seem odd. You build a cart for a welding rig out of wood. If you can't weld why do you need a welding rig? (yea I know you also use it to heat stuff up, but you do say you plan to learn to weld), missed or postpones opportunity? BTW the design of the cart looks really solid at a glance. You said you want to be able to work on cars in a shop someday. That could require welding, depending on that specific project. As a maker the lack of welding skill seems like an obvious fundamental gap, especially with the focus on machining lately. This would seem like a whole area for you to dive into to expand your skill set and tool box. It would likely put additional strain on space, and to some degree budget. That said, I realize metal work in general is a pretty deep and broad rabbit hold to venture down when you already have a solid base for the project you focus on, so you'd likely need some real reasons to add it. I'm pretty sure the full face shield does more than protect your eyes, as molten metal can hit your face. It can also hit the rest of you too. Dress for success (and safety). The combination of metal, wood, and other materials in the implementation of a design is very powerful. I expect the road to being a metal worker would provide for good content for the channel. In any event. The content has been really good lately.

I must say having a E size oxy bottle is pretty handy around a big metal fab shop but they are way to big. We use D size bottles on sites and it’s so much better. way lighter and way safer.

The only problems with those is they don't last long at all. Especially the oxygen. Full size tanks are better unless you need true portability. We have a 10CF acetylene bottle for soldering on job sites and it runs out fast. Its so useless we quit soldering copper a long time ago and just use a high quality urethane caulk.

The tanks a required to be stored outside and separated. Concrete block bins typically. With a chain to keep any from tipping over. Retrieving them from outside is where the dolly design shines and makes more sense. Your dolly should also have a metal plate separating the tanks and should not be made out of fuel. Covered in fire retarded paint. Slag could stick and burn into it easily. I do like the design and color. Just make it out of metal and incorporate a divider.

Professional welder the cart looks great store the goggles facing up so it's dust and stuff don't fall in them you'll end up with a raccoon mask and next time you go to put your goggles on and see if you can go with larger wheels on it so that you can roll it over extension cords a little easier

If you aren’t familiar with how to use an Oxy Acetylene torch please don’t touch it. If you mess up the Acetylenes pressure you will blow up the area you’re in! P.S A small truck crane that attaches to your tow package can lift the tanks out with relative ease and don’t cost very much.
