    Ceiling Ht. Minimum, Garage Door Opener

    These are the brackets that I used: http://supersneaky.com It was tight, but my old '07 Ranger FX4 with 33's and a 4" Superlift would fit. I couldn't open the hood under the door or opener though!

    Ceiling Ht. Minimum, Garage Door Opener

    I've got a 9x7 door and slightly less than an 8' ceiling. I used some brackets that I bought online to make it work with an opener. It's pretty close but it works!

    Attaching 1/2" steel top to welding table frame

    Thanks, my 1/2 bolts are probably overkill. I think I'd still like to space 8 out though in case my frame is not 100% flat then I can shim to make the top flat.

    Attaching 1/2" steel top to welding table frame

    Sounds like it's a good idea then. I never thought of bolting them up into the top, it sounds like it may be the way to go. Did you both drill it right through the top or just part way so there is no hole seen from above? If I didn't drill right through I don't think there would be too many...

    Attaching 1/2" steel top to welding table frame

    I think I'd like to bolt my 1/2 plate top to the frame of my table instead of welding it. I could be wrong, but I think I'd be able to shim it if my top is bowed at all and this way I wouldn't have to worry about possible warpage after welding the top solid. My top is 30"x60", and I was...

    That's what I'm trying to figure out now, actually. I'm thinking of countersinking some bolts that attach to tabs on the top part of the frame. I think that way I could always shim it if needed. My other thought was to weld small tabs onto the underside of the top itself and bolt them to the...

    First post, just looking for some input on my table

    Thanks for all the info everyone. I'm still leaning towards my slots though, I'm not really keen on the tack and grind off. As for the squaring issues and extra fab time, I enjoy it and I'm not really in any rush!

    First post, just looking for some input on my table

    Thanks guys. tarbellb, I did consider the holes at first but I will also be using the table for a bit of small engine work and other things where there is small hardware and parts so I want a smooth, solid area to do those things on. I'm not too concerned about the locks/levellers. My current...

    First post, just looking for some input on my table

    Been looking around here for a while, but never got around to posting until now. Long story short, my wife who is a graphic designer has been helping someone who owns a plasma table how to use his computer programs to design things. She is being compensated by items cut on his table...
