    Plasma cutting tables

    My tablet is only 24”x48”, but it’s built out of light square tubing, then I took two pieces of 48” angle iron, with the outside angle pointing up like an arrow towards the roof, and cut kerfs through it about 3/4 of full depth. These kerfs are about every inch. These rails are mounted on either...

    This is a powder coating station I built. The blaster cabinet sits on top, and the fold out table allows for a pop up spray tent to sit on top.

You can’t see it well, but I built a trough/drain into the top deck (above the oven, below the blaster cabinet) to allow the media to dump out the back side. The blasting cabinet legs are so short that the drain is...

    Powder Coating station

    So I got tired of my painted metal projects getting scraped and dinged, so I decided to start powder coating. Well, I’ve got limited room in my shop/garage, so I set about building a trolly to hold my oven, a media blaster, and a fold out table to support a pop-up spray tent. It took a while to...
