Possible base for welding table?

admin

I've got 3 of these metal storage units.  They are lightweight, but pretty sturdy. Horizontal dimensions are 24x48. I think they are 30-32" high. Which will be raised a few inches when I add casters.I'm thinking of using 1 as a welding table and getting a 1/2" 32x56 plate of A36 (?) and tacking it down with a few short weld runs to the top of the storage unit, that way I would have 4" overhang all the way around.There are two sliding doors on one side, that I could open to provide an opening for knees when sitting. Sound reasonable? Attached ImagesESAB Heliarc 252

Reply:I would probably drill & countersink some bolts Vs, welding it on myself.It'll be flippable once it crowns a bit from the heat.Buy American, or don't whine when you end up on the bread line.
