Thanks Rick. Should be big enough. 10' x 6'. Wheelbase is about 107 as I recall? Might need to extend a bit to do bumpers, but that shouldn't be too difficult.

Digging the table.

Is that a 3 bay garage?

Yes. 3 bay - they call them 3.5 car garages here. But I can only manage 1.5!

Table looks great, nice work.

Nice work on the table. I would recommend one more pair of casters in the middle. It'll give you more support/ disperse the weight load better. Just a thought, hope it's helpful...

He's planning on two more and leveling feet also. He just needs to pick up the pace, so slow

Dude I work like a mad man for an hour here and there. Just hard to fit in while solving all the worlds problems, hockey, and mowing the lawn.

All six casters are on and all the leveling feet are on. Welding skills are still sketchy him going to blame it on a couple things. Imperfect prep work (gaps and cleaning) and a crappy helmet! Need to stay between the lines. The lines are my friends. I promise the welding will get better. In the meantime I will accept all constructive criticism.
