A couple months ago, I discovered that "welding tables", meaning
sturdy tables with thick steel tops 3/8 to 1 inch, are very hot
selling items, desired by many people and easy to sell.

Have you researched the liability issues of fabbing to sell? I'd want
that on my umbrella policy if nothing else.

I would not be losing my sleep over liability involved in making a
welding table. It is not a spaceship or a scaffold.

I try to never underestimate the depth of stupidity in the world.
There are idiots everywhere who hurt themselves and try to get someone
else to pay for it. Far too many succeed. (see SawStop story, etc.)
Ladders have 27 different warning labels on them nowadays, each the
result of someone being stupid while on one.


I am still thinking about reinforcements, the need thereof, etc.

If nothing else, put perimeter bars around the leg bottoms so they
can't splay.
