Yes. There is a place like 20 minutes from me. Nice dudes.

Hmmm? At MetalsDepot the angle is cheaper than the flat bar. I will look at Alro and compare prices. BTW - This is just for hobby purposes for now until I get good enough to build shit I can sell. That's the goal. Make some extra cash.

I had someone suggest using angle for the top. Seems like a good idea too. Low heat transfer and should be very strong. I could slide those around too. it would like L L L L L L L What do you think about that? Very cheep too compared to plate or "slats".

Thank you Lt. 1/4" might warp too? Wow. If that's the case then maybe going with slats instead of one solid piece would make more sense since I could just replace individual slats that may warp. Much more cost effective.

If I ad more angle supports across the top of this table frame can I use 3/16" x 4" slats for the top instead of having to go with 1/4" steel? I have to wheel this table around a lot I so want to keep the weight down.
