Comes in handy for unloading something and moving around the shop then lifting it up to his steel work table. |

Rework it a bit with a larger base footprint and make a ~4'x6' top surface out of two layers of 3/4" birch ply topped with laminate and edged with oak. Makes a very good all around work table for the shop that you can adjust to the optimum height for the project you're working on. I made a similar work table from a 1,000# cap power adjustable height frame I found surplus for $50. |

I think that it has plenty of table space as of now, approximately 24x48 inches.

I keep my rotary table on a couple 2x4s so I can grab it with the forklift or the engine hoist (whichever is closer) when I need to load it on the Bridgeport. That base would be much better as a work table. |
