Serosity, I do not know why You do not have a million subscribers. My Dad would have drooled over your shop. Funny, smart educational. You have cleaned up your potty mouth (somewhat), so I am going to start watching with my 7 yo son. Keep up the good work. I am pulling for ya. David McGuinn
Dude that table would be perfect for somebody just getting started. Even if you were working on a handrail or something long you could always buy one of those adjustable roller stands for like a hundred bucks.
Even just moving the one to a different location could help, depending on what you're making
Have the same table and really like it. Perfect size for my shop and extremely well made. Great fixture table, especially for the money. Enjoying your channel.
Definitely want to see how you build your leg kit. I plan on building my own as well.
Great video love the new table 👍👍
Right on👍 i can see just using the fixture top on the bench alone for small jobs would definately work out just fine with out the legs mounted. Nice project glad it all worked out, keep them comin fellas🤘😎
I just got my Acrflat table last Friday! I was very impressed! It is funny that this video popped up to watch AFTER I got my table! lol I have a friend going to make me some alignment pins and stops for the "fixture" side of using it since Fireball tool is out of everything that I would like to get. I would definitely recommend for a "affordable" table.
Very nice great peace of equipment! Nice car at the end!!
Now I'm curious what you'll think of the fireball tools table. It's a whole different league in price of course, but it looks amazing with all of the tooling.
Overpriced for what it is. And he’s locked you into only buying his tooling for it.
My fireball experience was only for $1300 but did not go well at all. I feel like the whole biz is ran from another state from his shop and it’s essentially drop shipped for him. And yes you buy into his size table and you are stuck if you think it will make a difference you need them I guess it’s worth it.
The price of this table is like 600$ , you cant beat that
Nice strut brace,i like the tables great start up and can be expanded to cool 👍👍
I'll bet that MR-2's going to be fun!
I always liked the fireball tools table and accessories
I'm team whatever fits your needs.
Personally I use obscenely gigantic tables, think mine weigh as much as your shop. 6'x12' with a 1" thick top and 1/2" webbing underneath and a 5'x10' with 3/4 top and 3/8 webbing, both cast iron. Of course I also build things that need that heavy of a table. Since I've got the giant ones I don't see a need (or any space) to have a small one for the small projects I work on.
If you don't do anything big or heavy and don't need much clamping pressure then the small 1/4" tables are perfect, more clamping pressure requires a thicker top so you don't deform around the holes.
Love your content. Shoutout from Callaway
The table is perfect for the home shop especially for a tig /fab table fixturing a small bracket to repeat 2 to 20 times would be a snap.
This isn't going to turn into some Abom79-commercial-of-the-week, is it?
hopefully not
Next week's video is a pure fabrication / build video! We've had a lot of ongoing long term fabrication projects that we are finally finishing up, so the coming weeks will be packed. We have fun doing some reviews, but they are by no means what this channel is all about. So we completely understand and agree with that concern! Thanks for watching and sticking around - Walker
@@LiftArcStudios glad some fab projects are coming up.
The whole commercial of the week is the main reason I unsubscribed from abom79 and other channels.
@@samuraidriver4x4 Yeah that's totally understandable, we've had many internal discussions on how to best avoid that. Which is why even in videos like this we always try to include some real fabrication and put tools to use, but I know it's not the same. To be completely transparent, the last few videos we put out were because I've been catching up on editing after getting back from Europe a few weeks ago. It was tricky coming back and trying to figure out what had been filmed, what builds were worth showing, which ones were complete, etc etc 😅Product / review stuff is much more straightforward to timeline as far as editing goes. But now that I'm back in the flow of things I have a better grasp on all the fab projects and how to turn them into videos! - Walker
Even if it does, it's their channel, they can do what they want. Abom enjoys his life and what he does. Why is that an issue?
I see Shop Sabre raised the price of the Arcflat tables almost $200 hope they don't snuff out the affordable plasma tables and support.
did they? wow, I waited too long to get them then. pretty annoying but they come from overseas so maybe thats the issue. that really changes whether or not I would buy them now versus something else.
Nice video im just trying to get a laser cut table at the minute..ive never seen cast versions available in the uk
Yes, more car stuff would be awesome.
Fireball tools have a fantastic table and fixturing setup. They also have a UA-cam channel.
New table looks very handy ,, few curves on those gussets would have helped the look though.
The Gifts keep coming!
I have two of these tables and I just bolted them together and used one leg kit. I ordered two leg kits, but found I only needed one once I bolted everything up. Been like that for about a year now with no issues.
I have 2 also,these are nice and less than the same size fabricated tables.
Ive been looking into these tables, the price is definitely right
I had my company purchase 4 of these and while they work fine i could not use most of the strong hand tools i already had because of the table’s thickness. I would strongly recommend buildpro’s tables or Fireball. All depending on what fixturing kits you may have already. Siegmunds great too but their fixtures, even on the imperial models are 16mm.
Additionally the holes on these are 16mm which makes using 5/8” fixtures (sloppy)
Nice MR2
She's Beautiful. Congratulations on your new tool / toy my friends. Hopefully you get great use out of it for many years to come my friends. Can't wait to see more videos soon my friends. Forge On. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Forge lit. Keep Making. God Bless
Those gussets really dressed up that brace. Made it look factory.
not bolting them together allows you to space the tables apart to be able to lay on clamp down and weld longer stuff when needed
as for the strutbrace , yeah sure needed to be cheap , than again a little grinding on the strip connecting the two pieces making them fit flush with the bars there welded on and then mounting the tri angles at an angle so they flowed off the existing bracket intoo the tube that was moved wouldve made the piece look more factory for about the same amount of materials and welding (just a bit more time fitting the pieces in there and maibe heat up the point to bend it down to conform to the shape of the bar or fill it with weld to be shaped with a grinder ), the guy himself couldve done the finish grinding sanding and polishing and rounding off on those pieces to make them flow like the original bracket to the struts
the guy is going to show of his work and the adaptation of the brace is right there for all to see and a billboard / showcase for the work you do in youre shop you want it to look nice so others will want the same thing
can still do most of the grinding and then and just weld some thin stainless sheetmetal over it to cover over the bracing and make it look nicer (bends eazier too )
If I had two of these, I would use their legs for the ends. I would then fab a “Y” connector for the middle of the tables that would screw into the countersunk holes for a leg that I would weld on to the end of the “Y”, giving good support with one leg in the middle on each side. There are ways to mount a top to legs with wheels that won’t distort the table on a non perfectly flat floor (every floor that exists!). Wheels, which I put on everything that I build, pretty much, is generally a no no for welding/fixture tables, unfortunately, because they disallow any way of having a truly flat table
Such a shame they don't sell these in Europe. The shipping costs are higher than what the table costs. Ideal for someone starting with welding.
There are a couple different European companies that make fixture tables.
Not cheap but great quality.
Tricky part would be getting twin turbos on that six. Gotta have two
I have 2 of these they are awesome(had to pay for mine) These are very affordable ,less than the fabricated tables available. I added leveling caster wheels to the bottom,raised it 3.5 inch. I reinforced the legs. Was planning to buy one of the Lanmuir plasma cnc,hopefully the new company doesn't mess that up.
I am not a commenter on socials, however I need to comment on Wyatt’s intervention on the opinion on the smaller table. Sincere or not, the vibe feels real, as does pretty much everything on this channel.Also, it’s just lovely how Walker includes this on his edit. Probably not the first one, but just need to let you all know that LAS (just las the word) in Dutch means “weld” (as in welding bead).
ik need a 2 x 4.... but you gave me the idea... perhaps gang up two and do a 4 x 3
A drop of Loctite for the handles, done.
i wonder if there are vblock clamps basicly one of the regular clamps but with a v grouved foot
New drinking game??? Every time Tay says Stainless take a shot? Haha jk love the vids keep up the awesome work. You continue to inspire me to get my own shop going.
Tay has a drift car?? what man this guy is so cool and I like to see some content on that
We put out a video on it last year! ua-cam.com/video/ZdD85ul_3yQ/v-deo.html
Probably gonna film another updated video on it soon :)
Did your friend regret cutting that strut bar? He basically made it useless having you remove the main cross brace for the shock towers and took all the strength and basically the entire point of it out. That probably made his card handle like shit after that.
Would of liked to see how those epoxy filled bolt kits work.
I have 2 but elected not to epoxy them together,have a friend who did use the epoxy bolts,said it was a process but worked well.
Hey guys love your videos, I'm just starting out and I'm getting a table today I have been working without one and things are taking to long and I think I'm going to get this one is this the best bang for the buck ? Honestly?
P.s. I did see a discount code is there one and my add getting me or is there not one ?
Hello nerds
Sup kid
Can you show us your passivation machine?
You only need the 4 legs after you bolt the tables together
If you’re going to bolt two of the tops together, why not just spread out the four legs that you already have, do you really need two complete sets of legs or will one in each corner once it’s bolted together work just fine.
Call me a cynic, but hearing Shop Sabre acquire Langmuir. Can't beat them, buy them. Then they can control the ecosystem further.
might give Langmuir more money for inventory control, they cant keep up with demand.
Is this the guy from Salvage Dawgs? Tae or something ?
Should have look at the profile ……
What no burnout? WTF! Look, get with the program Tay, you show us car stuff, we see burnout! You owe me a beer...
Nice video get back to work Wyatt
Love what you guys are doing but do some research on the health effects of welding stainless without a respirator. No reason to do what you love for 20 years to die at 21 years.
You’re big ass gigantic table is in desperate need of a scotch brite clean and strip XT pro disc. 😂 On a serious note, you’re really gonna want to buy like a 10 pack of them for your angle grinders. They are bad ass man they remove paint, rust, and mill scale in a hurry… Not even joking and they last a long time too… I just cleaned a piece of angle iron with it. I swear man, that’s the cleanest angle iron I’ve ever seen in my life and it had some bad scale on it. I wiped the greasy oil off first with some acetone. I’m not sure if that would make it clog or not but either way I didn’t want to smear that into the clean metal.
Should of hit up Jason at fireball! His tables are tits!
No music please
All the welding tables I’ve seen on the market just focus on the surface of the table only… The legs that support the table which is just as important if not more is like a after from the designers… Except for the table from fireball tools 🛠️ another UA-cam welding fabrication channel… It’s extremely expensive but it’s a well designed table that’s flat as flat could be that’s manufactured and fabricated to an extremely high spec… He also excellent fixtures,angles and accessories that welders need when fabricating highly crafted pieces of work… It’s a shame really it’s bad design that’s not well thought out …
I really enjoyed the shop conversion vids, but am losing interest every time he comments on his hieght...
The filming is very bad
