To use as a dolly to work sheetmetal?  Different radius curves for different things?
Reply:sounds like a good idea to me. better have a thick table top though.There are no problems. There are only solutions. It's your duty to determine the right one.Hobart Handler 210Airco 225 Amp MSM Stinger
Reply:Not enough insight to what you are thinking, but I make all my steel tables with 2 inch (3/16) square tubing for legs, then make a 1-1/2 inch hole in the top above the leg so that I have a receiver, then put an anvil in that receiver with a Hardy Hole. Its a 7/8" square hole that holds yet more receiver type stuff.. so this is where I can make various radius steel pieces to shape any metal I want. I have the table and the anvil, but haven't made the hardy tools yet. The 55 pound Harbor Freight Anvil has the proper Hardy Hole, and you can do a search on Ebay for Hardy Tools to see what I am talking about. Hope this helps! Would be interesting to hear what else is out there for this purpose.

Reply:Thanks Rog, I have been doing it quite a while myself.  Here's what some of my high school kids did.  And yes, I know some of you are going to say they need more personal protection.
