Yeah I'd definitely go with the aluminum slats but you can sand primer and enamel paint your mild steel slats so you don't get a sludge of rust in your water table. For those who still have the vanilla table you can also cover the mount bolts the same so they don't rust and leak.
That looks fantastic, Kyle. We have lots of tools and *machines* in common! On our table, the slats are actually below the water level (instead of above, like yours) and the cuts happen slightly below the surface, in the water. We find that there's less splatter and the material is keep cooler than when it's out in the air.
Cool design, everybody with wants the one-piece table and single flat drain. I really like the mounting tab design, eliminating the holes in the table. It's nice to see your concept come to reality. It is pricey but well worth it for those who use their table with any consistency. The great thing is that you shared your concept and if anybody has a decent fabricator shop near them, they can have it made locally. Thanks Kyle! BTW You'll need some green dye in your Keystone tomorrow, Happy St. Pat's!
Thanks! I appreciate that. Like you said..people can use this setup and have it made or incorporate some of their own ideas. Definitely worth it for me until i get the larger table.
That looks sharp! I don't have any water in the shop where mine is, so I came up with a rather hackish solution. There's a 17 gallon tote under the table, with a 5 GPM garden pump submerged in it. I used a solenoid valve between the drain and the pump. To fill, the pump and the solenoid are both switched on. To drain it, only the solenoid is switched on, and the water drains back through the pump. The pump sits about 1" above the bottom of the tank so any crap that drains down does get picked back up. Right now I have to watch the table fill and turn it off before it's too high, and also wait for it to drain so the solenoid doesn't stay on forever. Eventually I'll either get water down in the shop, or design a device that will stop at some level when filling, and keep the solenoid open for some fixed period of time when draining.
Great video, and thanks for all the great info. I am looking to get a one-piece table like what you did. Any chance of selling just the files for the table and slats?
Serious table upgrade for sure. I contemplated making a 1 piece for mine, even welding the 2 pieces together was way better. My XR has 4 pieces. Ugh. It’s brutal as well. I’ll end up building a full one for it I’m sure. Lookin good Kyle! Love the vids. 👌🤘🏻
Why they screw the pan down anyways? Where is it going to go? Ive gotten to where I drain mine after every use pretty much. The mess is such a pain if you dont use it everyday. I use anti-seize on my lead screws, works great.
North west indiana? Ummmm yeah .... I'm in north central indiana. I go that way a lot. I might be in touch with you about getting those from that shop. Just got my table a month ago and I'm getting ready to set it up. I could literally pick up this stuff in person. Thanks man!
@@SpicerDesignsLLC if the shop you have making them for you is in my area I could pick them up there directly and save the shipping costs if that’s possible
@@SpicerDesignsLLC Oh cool! I work in Chicago and keep my boat in Michigan city. I’d be happy to order some things through you and just pick them up there. The water table and slats have my attention. I built a 4x4 table that operates on mach3. But it’s not as accurate as I’d like. I’m probably going to put hybrid stepper motors on it eventually. I’ll be in touch!
A linear rail instead of the bearing roller relying on the square tubing being straight would have been a much better design. I probably would have also added a cover for keeping the ball screw clear and clean.
Always great content Kyle! I’ve watched since you launched and your video editing and layout is great! But where’s the prank fall? Not even one?!! They’re so good! Haha!
Looks like a great upgrade. Is the 1/4” gap between the bottom of the material and water the ‘industry accepted’ sweet spot? I need to make a pan for my table, so looking for some pointers?
The idea of having water is two parts one to absorb the heat so your material doesn't warp and two to contain the dust and molten slag. I have a flash guard on my head with three low pressure air nozzles. Aimed so everything about 1" around from the cut goes straight down into the water. Technically you can run water up to the bottom of the material which makes sense if you're cutting material less than 18 gauge. But obviously unless you have a recessed water table design or lower profile slats it's going to splash water everywhere.
Thanks! I do sell my design files for $50. I would also include the slat file for the larger table and original table. Just email me if your interested.
@SpicerDesignsLLC ok good deal I'll make sure I can find someone local to cut/bend it for me first but I'll probably hit you up soon for it . Thanks again!
Sell the dxf file for the table water tank. Then the buyer can have it fabricated locally. You have to have some kind of key code so people don’t share your intellectual property.
Nice job, but tape And dope is far far overkill. It’s not under pressure, and you have the bucket. Could be a bit of a bitch undoing it later. A secret you cannot share, good old wood glue makes a great light duty, easy to disassemble thread sealer.

Great video. Love the new water table
Great video as usual

Hmm. Thats interesting.
That table turned out awesome !!! It looks great also. Cant wait for your 1st time video on it.
Nice upgrade, that will make a huge difference. Thanks for the video on this "Machine"
Very nice upgrade! Cheers 🍻

I don’t know Jack about that table BUT I watch your videos anyhow because you’re a funny m/f 😆
Hah! Thanks Alan
DUUUDE, seriously, that large water table would be luxurious!! I have such a mess on the floor as cuts get toward the edges of the table. Nice one!!!

Sounds like quite the setup
Missed your calling Kyle. You're quite the designer. You don't miss a detail. Great video.
Thanks Roy!
Looks awesome man!!! Totally changes the look of the table. Thanks for another great upgrade video. 😊
Loctite 565 thread sealant in a tube is the best shit we’ve used where I work. We haven’t used teflon tape in over twenty years, if not longer.
Great video, and thanks for all the great info. I am looking to get a one-piece table like what you did. Any chance of selling just the files for the table and slats?
I do sell both files as one. Just email me and ill get you the info.
You got to believe it to achieve it!
Nice job on the design!
Thanks Doug! Its definitely a better setup
love those mounting tabs much better than the holes and tek screws. copying that!!
Have you, would you, shared your extended water table design on Langmuir's fileshare area for those of us with access?
I sell the water table file which also includes the larger slat file for $50.
Another great video. I would have used the tractor with forks for the table. But it's all good. Can't wait for the next one. Have a great day.
Thank you. I should have to pull the old one off. That would have been a much smart idea.
Serious table upgrade for sure. I contemplated making a 1 piece for mine, even welding the 2 pieces together was way better.
My XR has 4 pieces. Ugh. It’s brutal as well. I’ll end up building a full one for it I’m sure. Lookin good Kyle! Love the vids. 👌🤘🏻

Another guess:...
Your "magazine rack" ?

We actually moved to southern indiana a year ago. About an hour north of the Kentucky border. Still not far
@@SpicerDesignsLLC if the shop you have making them for you is in my area I could pick them up there directly and save the shipping costs if that’s possible
@@tna2me197 ya they are in East Chicago. Hammond/ Gary area.

So I subscribed, almost bought the crossfire. I hear maybe they have new one for next year though..... choices 😮
Thanks for the sub. Its been great for me. After three years. Havent heard anything about a new one but i dont doubt it.
Nice upgrades. Sounds like your X gantry is tweaked. That is a long span for a narrow beam. (Pushing in the middle probably doesn’t help either :). )
A linear rail instead of the bearing roller relying on the square tubing being straight would have been a much better design. I probably would have also added a cover for keeping the ball screw clear and clean.
So what I gathered you're using Tom's Lube on your threaded rod. Weird, but I won't judge =)
Thanks for not judging

Thanks! I really appreciate that. Unfortunately this video was a bit rushed so i didnt get to add all my extras in there.
Langmuir should include a cut file for your water table.
Pffft, my table came with a 1 piece water table...
but it's half the size of yours 😆
I'm a fan of MegaTape for my teflon needs. Do you mind sharing how much the table was?
Cost me $1300 with the slats.
New t-shirt, Spicer Dojo. Half Ass Karate😂
Good idea! I like it
Will you sell the file? So I can have it made locally?
@@chadbritton7880 i most certainly can. Just email me. I thought i mentioned that in the video but i cant remember.
Looks like a great upgrade. Is the 1/4” gap between the bottom of the material and water the ‘industry accepted’ sweet spot? I need to make a pan for my table, so looking for some pointers?
Im not sure on that distance but its pretty much the same as the old table. Allows me to have about a half inch of water below the points.
The idea of having water is two parts one to absorb the heat so your material doesn't warp and two to contain the dust and molten slag. I have a flash guard on my head with three low pressure air nozzles. Aimed so everything about 1" around from the cut goes straight down into the water.

But obviously unless you have a recessed water table design or lower profile slats it's going to splash water everywhere.
On our table, we actually run with the slats slightly below the water surface so the material is cut in the water. It works great.
Good stuff. I just ordered my table. Are you still using the 30 gallon compressor?
Congrats! And yes i am
@@SpicerDesignsLLC awesome. I’d like to hold out on getting a new compressor as long as possible! Thank you!
cool
great upgrade for sure ! if you decide to sell the dfx file for the table i'd be a buyer
Thanks! I do sell my design files for $50. I would also include the slat file for the larger table and original table. Just email me if your interested.

You missed one step ,, pipe dope on threads tape, pipe dope.
Hah! Thats just unnecessary. No leaks so were good
Even for 100 psi@@SpicerDesignsLLC
No beer? WTH?
Trust me i know. Hah! I had to rush that video together so i wasnt able to do as much as i like. Was a little more serious.
@@SpicerDesignsLLC Nice table upgrade.
