Closer to 650 pounds, but, still a heavy s.o.b.

Mine was 24 kt gold plated -- so closer to 900!! :rofl: :rofl:

1/2 hot roll plate wt.# 20.42 per sq.ft. 32sq.ft.x 20.42# is 653.44 if the plate 48inch x 96inch. 3/4 plate wt# 980.16 FYI

You forgot the weight of the gold I had mine plated....:rofl:

here is my bench that I made with some tubing an old solid core door some old office supplies.fabbed it about ten years ago going to finish it soon. with rod holders for tig filler rods.taking one of the drawers out to move the cooler below with a set of bearing slides to service.the top is 36x72 1/2 plate. and a vice that is MADE IN USA.!

Chad delivered on the models for the welding table - man that guy is good !!

Used many of the ideas posted here. 30 x 48. 1/2 steel top to reduce weight. No front lower cross bar so I can sit under and weld. Levelers with casters. 4 inch grid pattern drilled into the top to accept 3/8 NC machinest clamps and blocks. 2 electrical outlet on the front cross bar (1 left - 1 right) to plug in grinders and stuff. Racks down the left and right legs to hang stuff - in my case left rack is for 1 inch to 10 inch C clamps. The right side is for grinders and fender vise grips on first hanger and normal vise grips on the other. A 12 inch deep shelf on the bottom to hold equipment mounted to 12 x 12 plates that attach to the welding top (shrinkers, tube bender, tube notcher, T-posts, vise, etc) and a removable 3 piece grinding screen to help control the crud spray.

Chad is still adding to the design with a full length drawer under the top to catch the crud coming thru the table grid and we're working on a 5 inch deep cabinet that mounts under the table and between the back 2 legs to store consumables (mig rolls, rod, tips, cups, liners, etc)

And did I say - Chad is the Man ! :thumbsup:

Very nice design! Chad does nice work!

This is my work bench. I use it for tig welding. It got kinda filled up with other stuff. 3x8'x1.5". Was kinda heavy to lift up with my lil engine lift. Works for me. Seconds as an anvil :thumbsup: JR

Im very limited on space so it has to do double duty. Kinda cramped in my garage..

You can't show "us" pictures of way kool stuff and not spill your guts!! That's just WRONG! :rofl:

Looks like it might be cramped - but cramped with all the right stuff!
