T-Slot Table

admin

Anyone know where I can get a new or used T-Slot table top for welding. I am looking for something around 1' x 2'. I have been looking all around the internet and can't seam to find much. I don't have too much money so I am open to ideas.Miller Mulitmatic 200Lincoln POWER MIG 180Thermal Dynamics Cutmaster 51Oxy-Acetylene TorchMiller Digital Elite Vintage USA
Reply:I hate looking up this sort of stuff on line.. I'd rather use the old paper catalog's it's easier to find things...Here's a table from Enco.http://www.use-enco.com/CGI/INSRIT?P...&PARTPG=INLMK3I know I've seen a T slot table some where in the past, either in MSC's or Enco's catalog. Whether it was a bare table or a tilt/ traveling table I can't remember. You might also try and see if theres any used heavy machine tool sellers in your area, or any place that refurbish machines. You might be able to get an old used table from a mill. I.No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear.

Reply:Miller has a T-slot portable welding table called the Arcstation. I think it was 250 clams at my LWS.Lincoln Idealarc 250 (circa 1962)Lincoln Weldpak 155 w/Mig KitLincoln Squarewave TIG 175
Reply:The Arcstation isn't really a T-Slot table, it just has an X cut centered on it, where T-Slots usually run the entire length spaced apart equally making setting up a jig or clamping very easy for the most part.Millermatic 211 Lincoln Idealarc 250-250, ~500lb water cooled tig
Reply:Thanks Guys. Could not find one online that was a good deal and a good size so I found a used machine shop and they had a 10.5" x 48" mill bed off a old bridgeport. I think this will work pretty good. Thanks for the input. Attached ImagesMiller Mulitmatic 200Lincoln POWER MIG 180Thermal Dynamics Cutmaster 51Oxy-Acetylene TorchMiller Digital Elite Vintage USA
Reply:I grabbed one from an old Gorton pantograph that is  about 18" square. It also has a round boss on the bottom that allows it to spin/move.  Try the used route or consider making one. Depending on how many slots you need, this might be a viable option.
