Hi all, my son is at a welding course at college and has to have a project
to make so I suggested he make me a simple router table, has anyone here any
ideas for a plan or something that could get him started?

First off, I wouldn't make a router table from anything but wood.
Next, you obviously haven't done any searching. Loads of metalworking
sites out there, with loads of plans - free plans - even more if you
want to pay. Hell, if you want him weld something up for you, have him
make you a trailer to haul wood with - this is a woodworking newsgroup.

If nothing else, he can just weld a batch of scrap together, and
call it art. Lots of people doing that, and some asking high bucks for
it. A few even get paid high bucks. As far as I've seen tho, I
wouldn't pay anything more than scrap value for 99.999999% of it.

There's a nifty mailbox I saw somewhere that someone had made by welding
together assorted car bits. It was a sort of man/car hybrid looking thing
with the mailbox in its belly. I'd pay more than scrap value for that
thing if I could get someone to haul it over here. Let's see you little
punk *******s run over THIS sucker!

Some teenage demolition experts offed the neighbors mailbox with a plastic
coke bottle containing dry ice and a little water. Apparently, quickly
screwing on the cap, sliding the bottle into the mailbox, closing the
mailbox door is the current technique. I thought the neighbors HW heater
had blown up by the sound of the explosion. The mailbox door came across
the street and bounced off my house, and the dismembered mailbox body took
about 30 seconds to come back down.

Inventive, perhaps, but don't sound terribly bright. I do hope the
police were called, they might be able to get a print or two, or maybe
not. Sounds like some jail time if they get caught.

This occurred several years ago, and it was the police who explained the
means of destruction and hinted that they knew the culprits. Never did
hear of any action being taken, but from the sound and destruction,
someone could have definitely been injured or killed if in the wrong spot
at the right time.

Get the timing wrong and blow your hand to smithereens. Not so
cool.

Since you had to go and get all practical and stuff, I guess not.

My first job, some 45 years ago, was selling sweets and ice creams on the Manly Ferry (Sydney,
Australia). A favourite occupation, when things were quiet, was to put a little dry ice and
water into a glass bottle and chuck them overboard. Made a nice little explosion - but of
course I was only 13 then. A very dangerous practice if done on dry land.

Mailbox baseball. I believe that was it. About the longest thread I've seen
