Do NOT Build a Homemade Welding Table Like This!

- I had some scrap 1/2" plate in a pile so I thought I would make something cool. I needed a welding table to make all the metalworking projects to share with you so that is what this video is about. This table took about 2 months to build and a month to edit video. This table will be the center piece of my workshop.
Now I need to build attachments to make the table even more useful. Subscribe to watch future videos of me making those attachments.
Final Table Weight = 195 KG or about 430 Pounds!
Can You Build a Welding Table From 3 Pieces of Scrap Metal?

Dude that inverted belt sander trick is genius. Have never seen that done
Thanks!! I have used it a tons since I figured it out. It works really well but wears a little on the sander. Harbor freight… haha
That was a cool use of an large sander belt on a regular belt sander!
Thanks, it took me awhile to figure it out. I actually made a shorts video about how I figured it out - if you are interested. It is called "Thor's Hammer Handle Cleaning Hack".
Spektakuler ❤❤❤
Thanks! I am very happy with how it turned out!
Good job, moose!
Thanks! Now the real work can begin…
So much work omg
You can say that again!
Turned out great, nice work.
Thanks man! How do you like your Evolution chop saw? I want to get one.
@@mooseworks Its a good saw for non critical cutting...but i would definitely suggest the blue S355CPS model over the one i have with its more robust fence and clamping mechanism.
That is very helpful! Thanks!
Excelente trabalho
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Moose hope you get great use out of it for many years to come my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God Bless.
Thanks Brother! Keep making too. Hope to see some forging videos from you soon!
Before you welded your frame on it when you first found out it was warped you could have wrapped a chain around it and used a hydraulic jack and gotten it back perfectly flat. Using a straight edge and taking your time you could have gotten it. Done it before, kinda aggravating but doable. Still you have a nice table.
That is a brilliant idea! Do you just wrap the chain directly around the plate and insert the jack between the plate and the chain? I wish I would have thought of that. I will keep that trick in my back pocket for next time, thanks!
Very cool. I had just one thought though. If you used some threaded rod through each leg post, from top to bottom you could adjust the height of the leveling bolts from the top plate. It would have to penetrate the top plate on each corner, but may be worth it to make adjustments easier.
That is a great idea! I didn’t think to do that and it would make setting the table a lot easier!
Nice work, awesome tube sander hack! Bit disappointing you didn't get it flatter with the flame :(
Thanks! I wish that would have worked too. But I guess it has not proved useless… haha
Great video! 🙂
I kept thinking "Gee, I hope that round tubing was FREE, because square tubing would have been half the work and a better functional result for mounting things and shelves etc"
Where do you live that steel gets so rusty? I'm in QLD Australia where it is hot and high humidity, and all my steel stocks rust like that too. 😐
I didn’t spend a dime on any of the metal. It was all available to me. If I did buy, square tube would have been what I did. I am in Texas and it can definitely get quite humid! I have been to NSW a couple of times and it was pretty humid every time I went so I bet it is hard to keep steel clean!

Thanks!
Ok…ok. We get it. I will just buy a welding table…thanks Moose!! Seriously, frigin awesome work bud!!
Thanks man! Fun project, but a lot of work. 😂
Para que unio los pedazos de plancha, si hay un monton de mesas de soldar profesionales con mesas segmentadas. Lo importante es que esten planas y uniformes en distancia.
I really wish I had left them separate! Great suggestion. I like the look of a single piece, so that is what I was going for. Didn’t know it was going to be such a headache! Thanks!
@@mooseworks Asi es, debio ser complicado unir eso, y dejarlo plano, ahi hubo mucho trabajo. De cualquier manera el resultado es que quedo una mesa de trabajo robusta que durara años. Saludos.
Was that full that spot welded together??
I was having trouble with porosity on my stringers - so a good portion of it was tack welded. Which seemed to work well. It just took a very long time.
Now you can figure out how to weld
You don't think I can weld? I at least got the table together! haha
*A thousand years from now archaeologists will find your table buried in the ashes of society and assume ours was a religion that worshiped steel and the angle grinder :-).*
And my skeleton will be stuck hugging it because of all the hours I spent grinding - I’m never letting it go!
really... is that scrap metal plate? how much price of that.
Sure was! It had been laying outside for at least two years before I used it. And my local scrap yard charges $.25/pound.
My steel yard in Vegas charges about .60 per pound of their cutoffs
@@stevehall8227 I love buying scrap at a scrap yard. Steel is so expensive new. Scrap yards generally have some gems hiding in the rough if you are patient in looking.
My god you love grinding 😬
@@andthen2123 Haha. I don't know if I love it. But I like the results of it!🤣
Malísimo
Thank you!
Please use a mask while spray painting
Yep. You are correct. I should have had my respirator on.
