DIY 5' x 10' CNC Plasma Table Part 3, Making the Water Pan.

In this episode we are building the water pan for the CNC plasma table. It’s innovative in that it’s an entirely welded construction which does not require large bending equipment. The support slats are made of 1/8" x 2" flat bar which can be easily and economically replace when needed. Water pan's actual dimensions are 5'-6" x 10'-6".

Just found your channel. I realize I am a little late to the party but, would it be a good idea to put a diagonal brace to keep the legs from racking?

@@rickswanberg4995 when I was designing it, I wondered if it was necessary now that I have it built I’ve thrown myself against it quite a few times trying to see if it wiggled at all, and I can’t seem to get it to budge. It seems extremely solid so if I later find it needed, I will definitely add it.
I think it will be convenient to be able to store things under it so I was leaving it relatively open.
Thank I will look into it more.
