A followup: We straightened it with a hydraulic

jack and chain. Welded

three 6x3 steel channels underneath to keep it

straight, using jack as

each support was welded. Right now, the worst

un-straightness across

the whole table, is no more than thickness of

one credit card.

Channels underneath? Would have

been nice to know that in the OP, eih?

Hope you suckers had fun with iggy's latest post asking for help that lacked the proper information up front. It isn't the first time iggy has pulled this bull**** and it won't be the last time.

iggy almost always leaves out significant information when he asks for help. In doing so it frequently sends responders willing to provide help to iggy's moronic posts on a wild goose chase.

I think a sick little **** like iggy gets off on doing this because he does it so often.
