In case you ever wondered what the ultimate welder's cabinet looks like, this is it. Four feet tall, four feet wide and two feet deep, this lockable rolling tool caddy holds all the tools I need to do my job in whatever shop I happen to find myself.

You really don't want to know how much this thing weighs. Suffice it to say it is "oil field strong"!
3 inch steel casters are bolted to a 1/4" plate base, 16 gauge walls are piano hinged to 10 gauge doors, and it is topped off with a 3/16 plate top. As you can see my hood, grinders, leathers, tools and whatever else I need are at easy reach.
I chose an old oil valve that "may or may not have come from a local refinery" (allegedly). 1/4 turn of the handle pulls two 1/2 round rods out of their catches. An overlapping door designs holds both doors shut with one mechanism.
The double radius ends give this utility cabinet a clean intentional look. I chose a brown bronze for the walls and interior and flat black for the top and handle wheel. The flat black was used for it's ability to hold chalk (I like to take notes on tables etc.. ); this is after all a utility caddy.
If you want one let me know and I'll whip one out for you for about $1000.00

Way cool, Mac Daddy! How do you haul it around, though to jobs? Oh, yeah, you have Melissa lift it up in the back of your pick-up. Right?
Or maybe you can "slingload" it with a helicopter.
IMPRESSIVE. Can you organize my closets?
WOW! Is this something you should patent?
