What type of part, how many are you making, and what welding process do you intend to weld them with using this table? Just wondering, because if you intend to use MIG, some spatter guards for your beautiful mechanism will be in order to prevent damage to the drive train components. Dave |

I would suggest instead of retracting, use a compression spring. http://www.mcmaster.com/#compression-springs/=encuwz |

Rotary welding table project
--Too late! Problem solved by selecting a different anchor point and
using a different spring. Got this one out of an old draftsman's lamp, the articulating kind; it's perfect for the task. -- "Steamboat Ed" Haas : Steel, Stainless, Titanium: Hacking the Trailing Edge! : Guaranteed Uncertified Welding! www.nmpproducts.com ---Decks a-wash in a sea of words--- |
