Stephen, look at the selection of wheels that frequently show up in Harbor
Freight. I bought a set
of 4 that are inflatable, 2 on solid casters, 2 on swivel casters, about 6" in
diamater, and I use
them on a homemade cart that holds my truck body while it's off the frame. It
works great on uneven
surfaces (lawn, etc.) and sounds like what you'd need for a welding cart. Last
time I checked, the
wheels were going for about 8-10 bucks apiece.
That's interesting info on Hobart. I had not heard that.
