I love how it's immediately over $600.

Sonny I am 72 years old and have been welding since the 70's. I have built everything from semi trailers, to pump jacks and even race cars including wheel standers and drag bikes. That is hands down the finest welding table I have ever seen or dreamed of. A lot of experts would say to me, what about this table or that table, nope, I've seen em all, I would choose yours over all of them. Art from Ohio

You gotta love the experts in the comments. Like look around at the shop he is in. I’m sure he knows how to machine a thing or two. His way. Not your way. There is no right or wrong way. Just the way that works.

Dude - that was a mammoth effort. You are developing tools for life. Lifting... legs man. legs. If you wear out your back - you'll miss out on working with all these killer tools you've built. Thanks for sharing - super impressive build

Dude... What an absolute unit of a table. I'm not sure I've ever seen a more solid table ever. Fantastic job!

You do have to spend some time setting the saw up... blade, fence, etc. But once done, the saw is great. Fairly compact which is Nice kzfaq.infoUgkxXh-4_3-ZT1fFWP91ZV7iVqzElr0lEb-a I did get an Incra Miter Gauge which takes some setup as well. The stock miter gauge can be adjusted in the miter slot with a little painter's tape... this tightens up the side to side play a lot.

After watching you build this table, I am surprised your channel doesn't have more subscribers.

Look into annular cutters if you don’t already know about them. Much faster for poking holes. I hardly ever use drills if I’m just making holes over 1/2”

The traditional heavy equipment approach for the caster mounting plates is to mill a caster mounting flange pocket in the receiving caster plate. This way the caster mounting plate cannot move in shear, can be a rather large force if both the table and work piece are heavy. Also, the pocket helps to line up a new caster if a replacement is needed. If the caster receiving plate has a recessed pocket then you have many options for the caster bolts in terms of strength, meaning you can use SS locking (serrated) flange bolts. The misc. shelves many times are made using custom welded SS (304) sheet metal pans with raised edges to catch fluids and bottom strengthening stringers as an option, wood is combustible so is not used as part of the table build. The pans slot into the tables to keep them in place. SS pans clean up really well and are non-sparking.

Building a 7,000lb Welding Table For $6000 would still be a good deal for less than a dollar a pound. This is one of the nicer build I’ve seen recently. 👏👏

"Just a little bit of overkill." Understatement of the year! Great job mate!

Awesome beautiful table.

I just found this channel. Great build, explanations and quality. This is one of my favorites channels now!

That welding table is off the hook, great job as always, thanks.

Great video! Crazy overkill weld table,I'm jealous,you attention to detail is great watching for the third time.

A table that makes the fireball vice just look a normal vice. Dang that is impressive

Really cool table!!! Great job, you will enjoy working with that. Awesome accessories and clamps! You did everything first class...!!!

Love your workshop!!!!!

Great job on a serious table. We shared this video on our homemade tools forum this week 😎

A great project, especially on your own. That is some vise you have!

I love your attention to the aesthetic details and robustness of the finished product. You could've just slapped it together and be done with it, instead you persevered to make it something you can hang your tools and your pride on. Excellent craftsmanship!

It's a badass table and I'm ordering the vise Monday for our shop Great video

Great job!

So Good! Great job

Very nice table. Should be a great asset to your company for lots of jobs great Idea you had

Very enjoyable to watch

Table is awesome. What I took away more than the table is now I'm debating getting a radial arm, real nice to swing it over the table like that

ABSOLUTLY FREAKING AMAZING, I THOUGHT I OVER BUILT THINGS BUT YOU SIR ARE THE KING - GREAT BUILD AND TABLE - VERY ENVIOUS - KEEP BUILDING

If you buy all the material now and wait a few years, it'll be free. Wow, i didn't know it worked like that. Joking aside, awesome build, man. Thanks for sharing

Nice going, as a welding assembly table it is ideal for your purposes. Necessity is the mother of invention, and you have used that to your advantage. Well done 👍

So, in other words, this table can be made for $600 if McMaster-Carr screws up, and if a builder has over-bought 5” square tubing, etc etc.

I love Fireball stuff. Great stuff.

Fantastic table👏

Anybody who has or aspires to have a shop can appreciate how useful a bench like this would be. Great finished product homie

Absolutely, Well Done !!!

Wow Wow Wow!!! So Cool. Congratulations

This amazing. Now I have to copy you.

I just watched the Vice review two days ago. Awesome Vice and survived 197 blows.

What’s not to love? The overkill concept, name and precise execution allied to the quality film editing and Spartan commentary all allow me to get over the use of a 1-2-3 block as a hammer .great stuff, and may every job on that behemouth will be pleasurable and double accurate

Love it…thanks

Next time, turn some of the thread off the rod and press the round stem into the plate. Makes registration and alignment much more accurate.

Outstanding!

Nice job! You had me feeling some stabs of pain in my knees, seeing you kneel on that concrete... yeah, I'm old! I didn't see any comment from Jason, so I'm guessing he hasn't gotten wind of your design & application of his tooling. All in good time.

The only thing more impressive then this table...and what a table! Is the machines used to make it. Great skills you have. Great video!!

I thought I'd seen it all when fireball made that vise, but this is epic my friend 👌👌🇬🇧

The name of the game is overkill. Awesome work!

Nice job

no such thing as overkill! 😂💪🏼 badass table and that vise is a beast!

That's a very cool welding table❤ a bit of Danish rock music in the background❤

Save a lot if time by using the mag drill to drill the holes before you cut the plate. Plus the slugs make nice knobs with very little work in the lathe. The allo9wence for blade thickness is a little tricky for laying out the holes. most of the time I don't need that precession. I do the same with the metal muncher too. I tap punched holes with the impact wrench. I just add thickness to compensate for the lack of thread engagement.

Absolutely the most beautiful table I’ve seen. I want one. But I don’t need one 😂 Awesome build. I love the heavy duty overkill. I subscribed. Looking forward to more content. I will be getting a Fireball vise though. That I know! Keep up the great work!

Some chain come alongs would come in handy for holding that frame down to the table top while you weld it down.

bad asss welding table

Insane build. Now I wanna look for parts to build one… but all I have is a 2 car garage lmao

I am sooo jelly of your vise

Beautiful content, suscribed

I was pretty excited until I figured out that you got by far, the most expensive part for free. Most of us don't get to find that sort of luck in life.

Now thats a table!

For the threaded rod, it might be overkill and more work (ie not needed), but if you had chosen to do threads in the plate, thread the rod into the threads, then weld it, could that have helped give you a better solid attachment to keep it from tilting while welding? Or I guess you could have cleaned off the threads in the lathe for the part that sticks into the plate and used that for the press fit. In either case I love watching your logic and work flow for projects, please keep up the good work. :)

From a crane guy. Use a choker for your sling. Just in case it's not quite balanced it gets tighter as you lift. A basket it could slip off. Enjoyed the video tho really sweet table.

"I have these Massive Nuts" Absolutely going to watch this to the end 🤘😁

Damn dude, your shop is coming together. That welding table is sick AF. Just dont accidentally roll over your toe with that thing.... lol. A future video idea may be to trench out a corner of your shop so you can pour a 18 inch slab to sit that thing on... lol. You did an awesome job dishing out the troll repellent by explaining that you were welding with a beater chuck... Dont freak out about precision... Awesome vid dude. Im inspired to make my forever welding table now.

Man - I have seen bridges that aren't as engineered ! An epic table.

Hell yea, I heard some Volbeat at 26min mark🤘🏻

Wow! Heavy duty!! Great job on the vid. Obviously a sustained effort over a number of months and to end up with a cohesive story is remarkable. One thing I missed...how does the stand connect to the table top? Or does it just sit on it?

If you have more than 3 casters, the maksimum weight is still calculated for just 3 in case the floor is not perfectly flat

AMAZING!

I belive him, i love welding table, your table are great and i have table the same with $400 , most of iron i bought in scrap station.

One idea on the threads into the plate is to turn the threads down to less than the minor diameter of the threads so you have a smooth consistent surface and then bore the hole into the plate with a 0.001" press. This does 2 things. It gives a tight fit and gives a shoulder on the threads to square it up to the plate and you can set the depth for the plug weld on the back side

Brilliant build sir! You said when getting out the 8x3 steel that you had been in that shop for two years and it had not moved in that time, did you take over an existing business with all the machinery? Or most of it? I'm curious to know as I'm a new subscriber from the UK

You may have already said, somewhere, where you got the table..... so, apologies if you already covered this. Where did you get the table? A used machinery reseller, a scrap yard, or what? Thanks! Love the finished table n vise! 😊

just put 4 casters on the horizontal reinforcements of the base to move it and add some THICC threaded bars as legs that you can use to lift the table and finely tune the flatness of the whole table against the floor every time u move it. every time you move the table u need to check the flatness of it.

Sound solid strong. What a fixture table you have put together. Better than a Fireball Tool fixture table. But then having the top made would cost someone around ten grand more on its own. And all the clamps can be arranged any position at all. I thought you would use all thread or bolts with T nuts to weld up the trolley base, obviously I don't need to go into the circus as a mind reader! And as you noted the sheer size of it is as much as most jobs would ever need since you can overhang a bunch of the project and still utilise the flat fixture feature.

I tell you what .. your shop space has come a long way since your 2021 workshop tour! I assume this is the same space a the 2022 tour, it just looks _so big_ here! Nice table, too!

Dzięki za film. Dużo można się nauczyć. Muszę obejrzeć resztę Twoich filmów. Co to za frez którym fazujesz?

Just found your channel. A couple things.. First awesome build! That's a lifetime table your kids and grandkids will be using. Second what happened to your Epic Beard? And last but definitely no least... Excellent choice on the Fireball Tool Vice! Those Vice's went through a lot of R&D to be the best on the market. He just put out a new video on how tough they are.

I freaking love you Mike(not a sext way, you know what the hell I mean) lol. You are just a cool, funny, fun, down to earth,American, patriotic , man and I'd love to have a beer with you some day.

Great build - Wagnerian excess !

Which AC forklift is that? Looks exactly like my AC 40 i brought back from the dead. Will see if you have a video on the channel about it.

wish i could get my hands on a similar heavy machine component :)

What wizardry is this pneumatic beveler? I’ve never seen such a thing! Do you have a brand or link of some kind? I’d like to check this out. Nice work man! 👍

Those legs made had me doing a double take hahaha

*Fireball tool has entered the chat*

Sweet ! 🤙

How well does the table roll around

hi there nice table , john

I may have missed it but how is the top attached to the base?

I've worked whit back pain before (it would sometimes shoot down my right leg and it would go completly numb) and i dont wish that for anybody, so please use something to help you lift those big plates man, also more leg and less back. But, sick table man, overbuilding something so practical to ensure reliability is always a good investment of time and money

I'm pretty sure you could repair a battleship on this table!

The 1-2-3 block as a hammer just earned you a subscription! Bitchin build

Is the table top bolted to the base ?

Outstanding repurpose truly imaginative. Want it flatter send it out for grinding, freight would be a bear.

if you want to weld stuff without worrying about parts warping.. get a fronius tps with LSC and PMC programs.. lets you weld stuff up with min movement bud

Big Nuts Big Nuts!

Love your badass table. Could you please send me one:). Great video

Fireball tools just released a new video testing your vise against the competition. I had no idea vices cost so much money.

1:00 5in thread free stud with big nuts. Yep.

We’re able to weight the table?

I wonder where I can find a cast iron cnc table for free

Is there a reason the table seems kinda short?
