New Machinist/Gunsmith/Welding Table

[Harry Knutz]

Hello,

I finished my new table this year, I used two of the Husky rolling workbenches back to back. I fabricated the frame using 4 inch channel and 3 1/2 x 1/4 wall sq tubing, and finally a 3/8 top. I always wanted a Wilton Vice, So I replaced my old vice, Even though there really wasn't anything wrong with it. I restored an old craftsman wood vise and mounted it on the other end also. I moved my old bench outside and I am surprised at how much I use it out there. That's my neighbors Bergara on top.

That'll sure be handy.

That's nice. I have and use one of those Husky benches on rollers…I've yet to regret that expense, it's been perfect thus far.

Hopefully you don't want to move it too often----- that thing has got to weigh a lot

Yeah it's very heavy, But the bench that it replaced never moved until I slid this one under it.

That thing is a beast! Nice sized vise too. I went too small.

looks super versatile!!
i love the forethought that must have gone into it as well.
the table looks solid,
the drawers and tools at the ready seem great, and
the added functionality of the hitch pipes on the side with the nut and studs to hold things firm is a feature i can appreciate!

if i had the space for such a work bench i'd borrow some of your design!
