Glad you like the table extensions and plasma grate! I left an unpainted spot on the shelf where the plasma cutter sits so I just connect the plasma ground there and leave it connected. The plasma torch fits perfectly in the mig torch pipe holders too so that's pretty handy. So far I've just...

I posted a thread a few days ago with my solution to the mobile table issue. I used pneumatic cylinders to lift it. Check it out and see if something like this might work for your table. Any questions just post a comment on my thread and I'd be happy to help...
