Thanks!

A used snap on MM140SL is usually a bargain when one comes up. Off the snap on truck the price is insane but if you can find a used one for under a grand, you can pretty much buy attachments to do anything with that welder. I have had my MM140SL for a couple decades and it’s a work horse, I also have 220v welder for the bigger jobs. It’s a really haggard looking beat up ESAB Migmaster 250 I picked up years ago for $250 and all I did to it to get it going was buy a new liner and some tips. It’s also a great machine if found used as it uses common parts and they are plentiful.

No leaks from the drawers and we’ve seen a lot of rain in the past year since the build. The drawers are from American Van and come in a variety of combinations. I’m not a proper planner when I fab stuff, it just comes together as I go in my head. I think a lot about how Im going to build something and things often change quite a bit along the way as I go. It’s been over a year without any glitches or repairs needed so far so I’m pretty happy. I’m sure that if you can weld and have a decent saw you will successfully be able to take my general design and improve/customize it to your own specific needs. I’m not a professional fabricator, I’m just a mechanic who has to do some occasional fab work.

KR22 22mm follower bearings from Amazon also the side bearings that take out the side play were R4AZZ deep groove ball bearings. All pretty inexpensive stuff but really strong. Only complaint is if i roll my welder out really far to get a visual on the bearings, they are super rusty looking already. Have been having record rainfall out here this whole winter. seems like every week there’s a storm. Regardless of the rust appearance on the bearings, there’s no issues with the entire setup so far and have been using the truck 5 days a week since May of 2022 when I set it up.

@gsxrcom if you can get to the bears a little bit of anti sieze.mix with some 20/50motor oil

Will mix a batch at the shop tomorrow thanks!

I’d need to know dimensions of your rig and all model numbers of what’s going to be installed in the space. I had to start on my project with just dimensions of the welder online because the actual welder was still in order.

Ford has a new pushrod V8 gas engine, the 7.3L Godzilla. Been out for a few years now.

​@@8BWN Good luck with that, I'll stick to my 7.3 diesel

@@skitown11 ??? That just a fact LoL I have an 01 7.3, they're not all that special other than being kind of simple and pre emissions.
