Default swivel vs fixed casters for welder cart?

It depends. 4 swivels are less stable to tipping moments, but make the
cart much more easily positioned..



That depends on the wheel spacing VS the size of the load. Where is
the center of gravity?


2 fixed; much more stable, but
often means you need to maneuver the cart due to the restriction of
movement 2 fixed wheels cause. Take your pick.
