Lincoln Electric K2275-1 140C & 180C Welder Cart Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)What a waste. Poor assembly drawing with no instructions. The lack of instructions didn't bother me until I started assembly. I put the axle through the bottom shelf and pounded on the cheap wheel stops. You know the ones...they have teeth that grab the axle and can't be removed without tearing them...

US Forge Welding Flint Striker Triple #00509 Review
