I bought the same table and haven't used it yet but my buddy loves his and says it's great for small projects. I would personally invest in a better welder and use with gas. Nice garage setup for the hobbiest. Thanks and enjoy the hobby
@@AreYouAwakeYet thanks for watching and your comment. It is an awesome table, I have now added a second table and have used it with different welders. I am just a hobbyist welder but I absolutely love learning and doing small projects with them. We appreciate the support, have a great day and be safe!
Thanks for the review and video. I've been thinking about getting a welding table. Harbor Freight is my favorite store. I think I may give them a visit. You've helped me make up my mind.
Brave man to put up a welding video on TH-cam.... Lots of experts to tell you what you're doing wrong (glad you're taking a class) but these comments do include some practical advice - in general stay away from EMT - tube stock is easy to find.
@@scampeezo thanks for watching and your comment. Yep, I agree to just leave EMT alone now that I have learned more about it. Appreciate you! Have a great day and be safe!
Thanks for the comment. Yes I think it is well worth the price and I didn’t lock the casters before using, I should have. It rolled a little bit and the floor isn’t completely flat so it rocked a little when it did roll. Wasn’t too distracting for me but would have been better if it didn’t move… have a great day and be safe!
Thanks for watching and your comment. Good tip on the bacon sound. This was my first ever attempt to weld conduit and I was very happy and a little surprised it held. I appreciate your tip as I plan to get better. Have a great day and be safe!
They make a special kind of wheel that costs a lot more, but will go to a solid surface where the wheel is NOT touching the ground, to a lever action that puts the wheel on the ground. They cost more, but are a great choice for something like this. One other thing that I'd get is a moving arm rest. The arm/wrist rest basically holds your wrist and allows it to smoothly glide where you want the weld to go. They cost about $50.
@@karljay7473 thanks for watching and your comment! The wheels you described would be perfect for upgrading this table! Definitely would be better than the little friction locks on the ones we used. I will definitely look up the arm rest you mentioned. I haven’t heard of that before being a hobbyist but obviously that sounds like it would absolutely improve my welds! Thanks so much for your help, we appreciate you, have a great day and be safe!
@@Hoofer54247 thanks for watching and the comment. They are a 10mm - 1.5 which is the coarse thread metric. This is very close to 3/8 - 16 which is what size casters we used.
@@hydrosurf9602 thanks for watching and your comment! Yes, I spray it every few jobs. If you were welding all day everyday I think it would be a quick spray every morning most likely. It does work well! Appreciate you, have a great day and be safe!
good video and job conduit is hard to weld its so thin. i have a table like that from northern i paid $99 precovid. yours has more fixtures. be careful when using plasma cutter i cut holes in mine. take care, be safe and well.
Thanks for watching and your comment. I will definitely be careful with the plasma cutter, I could see accidentally blowing holes where they aren’t supposed to be with one! Thanks again, have a great day and be safe!
@@Spamgoham1 thanks for watching and your comment! Appreciate the tip. You are 100% correct also. We like posting videos as a learning hobby welder because we have learned so much from the welders who watch. Of everything we post we have learned more about welding from the community than anything else we post. Thanks for being part of that, you guys are awesome! Appreciate you! Have a great day and be safe!
Thanks for watching and your comment! That is good to know, makes me feel a little better about those welds! I know you have to be careful of fumes on galvanized but I always try to stay out of the fumes no matter what I’m working on. Thanks again, have a great day and be safe!
@@CopperBarnHomesteadhave to clean galvanized coating off with a grinder and for the ground clamp. Anything you weld on always wack it with a grinder the best you can
@@BrodyHill-ny5we thanks for the tip. I had no idea it was galvanized but had heard galvanized shouldn’t be welded. Yes, I have figured out how important grinding and weld prep is. My welding got much better when I started grinding first. Appreciate you watching and your advice! Have a great day and be safe!

Finally someone who knows how to explain

Good video man. Thanks for the heads up on the casters. I was looking.

Awesome! Thanks for watching and your comment. We really like the table, hope you enjoy yours as much as we do. Have a great day and be safe!

Worth the money but need to lock casters as table did seem to move a little.

Weld beads suspect as sound of deposition was not the sound of fried bacon.

@@CopperBarnHomestead My guess would be you need to turn up the wire feed a bit
@@madkow007 thanks for watching and the tip! Will definitely try that! Have a great day and be safe!
I replaces the nuts on my clamps with wing nuts. Much simpler to use.
@@JackSmith-jj3bi thanks for sharing, great idea! Appreciate you. Have a great day and be safe!
Thank you, you as well.

Just bought two. It’s great but I need to put on casters
@@VirginiaHapa thanks for watching and your comment! Yep, I have two now also. Casters are an awesome upgrade. Have a great day and be safe!
Great video, thanks for the review. What size thread are the holes for the casters?
@@Hoofer54247 thanks for watching and the comment. They are a 10mm - 1.5 which is the coarse thread metric. This is very close to 3/8 - 16 which is what size casters we used.
Glad to see you're using a respirator.
@@fiberSplicer thanks for watching and your comment. I like using one, that smoke is nasty! Have a great day and be safe!
@@CopperBarnHomestead Yes. Inhaling those fumes can lead to lung diseases and Parkinson's. Be especially careful when welding galvanized products.
Nice review!
Does the anti-spatter spray need to be reaplied every so often?
@@hydrosurf9602 thanks for watching and your comment! Yes, I spray it every few jobs. If you were welding all day everyday I think it would be a quick spray every morning most likely. It does work well! Appreciate you, have a great day and be safe!

You gotta turn that wire feed speed up it needs to sound like sizzling bacon constantly
