Reply:Nice!
Reply:Great design...
Reply:Thanks
Reply:Personally I would go with larger wheels...  Those tanks are heavy enough that small wheels make it a PITA to roll the tank over something like an extension cord or air hose on the shop floor.Then again, not everyone's shop is as disorganized as mine is, so obstacles may not be an issue for you.

Reply:nice job,i like the way you store the hose
Reply:I recommend the solid ones from HF. Seems like the pneumatic ones are always flat.
Reply:The Harbor freight ones are always flat because they only hold air for a week .  what can a person expect for 6.00 Bucks?  Mac.
Reply:Nice lookin' job. I'll suggest when you get bigger wheels, cut out a couple of triangles and weld them to the bottom of the cart set so the wheels will be further back from the tanks. It makes the cart more stable and lifts the bottom of it off the ground further for more clearance.                                               MikeOl' Stonebreaker  "Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes"Hobart G-213 portableMiller 175 migMiller thunderbolt ac/dc stick Victor O/A setupMakita chop saw
Reply:Mike I was cyphering axle placement. With a 10" wheel say, how far back? My axle is 1.25" back from tank and top heavy. So 1"-3"or 5"?
Reply:Originally Posted by anickodeIf you have a Harbor Freight around, they frequently have those 10 inch (I think) pneumatic wheels on sale for $3.99 or $5.99 depending on the week.  They also have solid tires in the same size for roughly the same price.  I've bought and used a bunch of the pneumatic ones, and for the price, they can't be beat.
Reply:I'd say about 3".                                      MikeOl' Stonebreaker  "Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes"Hobart G-213 portableMiller 175 migMiller thunderbolt ac/dc stick Victor O/A setupMakita chop saw
