I got word that my employer was obsoleting a product line and would be scrapping the contents of the build area. I picked up these two tables that were headed to the recycler. I guess it is cheaper to toss them they to pay storage.

They're a magnetic stainless (top and bottom), 3' x 4' with 1/4-20 tapped holes on 1" centers over the top surface.

The casters have built in leveling feet. It required some reorganization (still in process) of my small space, but I think these will work out well.

Those are really cool. What are your plans for them, particularly the tapped holes?

I think I'll use the tables for layout, so the holes are useful for holding things down. I just need to devise a way to keep them covered when not in use to keep crud out of the holes.

If they're not through holes, or really even if they are, you could cut some threaded rod into appropriately sized pieces and slot the ends. Might be too much trouble taking them in and out though.

You definitely deserve a:
YOU ****!! on that. But I would jump all over that if my employer would offer it to me. Nice!

Count how many holes there are and buy boxes of sets crews......

Nice score! You ****!

Just lay a piece of sheet metal on top till you need to clamp something, then slide the sheet metal off for those situations

Those casters are sweet!.

For covering it, I was thinking along the lines of a fitted cloth cover. Where practical, I keep the other equipment in the garage covered when not in use.
