Fab / welding table rehab.

Are you going to make that into a downdraft setup or is that just to collect slag/scraps? I love the idea.

Yes.... got them by accident. Got a pair of nice casters for a project on eBay and the seller asked if I’d be interested in these.. paid $25/ea and have been really happy since. They are rated at 5,200 lbs each and have no play in them which I like because they are always supporting the weight of the table. Moving it is very easy. I hadn’t planned it this way... was thinking of casters that could be lowered only when needed as others have done but I’m really happy with how it turned out. Very stable and easy to move in a simple design.

It makes the table look super short in the pics. Love it.

A fume extractor is on my short list of tools to buy next. I'd love to add a box similar to this pic next to my funnel to extract smoke. For now I'll put a galvanized bucket underneath to catch slag and scraps. I used it last night to sand some parts on. It sure would be nice to **** out that dust.
