hey jeff-
looks great! boy, i wish i had the room for a table that big! but that would just make it that much easier to get cluttered, because i wouldnt want to clean it, just move over to a cleaner spot
looks good man!

Do you have any close ups of the welds? That's a good looking table. Good idea with the wheels.

[JEFF75]

I will get some closeups sat., i actually have a freind with a digital camera that takes the pics, then he emails them to me.I was on my way out today and got him to take a quick pic ,but i will have more time on sat.

Man that sure looks sturdy. You could pound on that with a sledge hammer! What thickness top are you planning on?

I'm with Kyle...I wish I had the room for a table like that.

Nice job!

ok Jeff enough of the P**N this is a family site you can't post topless pix

Nice looking table If you ever want to move it don't call me as my back has already gone bad. Terry

[Cleaver]

wow..big table! nice...

terry..it has wheels...so its easier to move it! hahaha

yeah, it would be hard to move it without the casters...how much does that weigh?

[JEFF75]

TonyC, i am not sure if i am going to top it, i think i will use some 1/4" plate i have around if i need to put something on it for a little while to do a smaller project.
Cleaver, as far as weight i have no idea, i would say **** heavy,the posts are 3x4 1/4" and the skeleton is 3x3 1/4" angle. It moves real easy with the casters. I used my over head hoist to flip it while i was welding so i could do most of the welds in the flat position. I am fixing to leave to go there so i will get the pics of the welds and post them tonight.

The table looks good. It sure isn't going to blow away. I'm wondering if the casters are big enough? I know I should have used some a little bigger on my table. I used some that have brakes on them. You will appreciate being able to move the table.

As long as you have the overhead hoist, maybe a removable table top could be made for it.

Waiting for the weld pics.

[Terry Lingle]

yes I saw the casters I meant load that on a truck and take it to a new home.
I know what you mean about a removeable top I had a similar table at my business and had several tops that I changed with a forklift. There was a general purpose hammer on it top , a pretty flat weld jigs up on it top and a drilled jig top that was set up for repeat jobs. It went with the buisness when i sold it.

Funny but I don't miss it Terry

This is a weld in the horizontal positon, i flipped the table and when i did , i did these in the horizonal positon instead of having to vertical up or down.
