Re: Welding table legs.
Bassick is the industry leader in floor locks. They are generally sized by the caster wheel size. If you have 4" wheels buy a 4" floor lock. But floor locks do not lift the table off the floor. If you need feet that lift the table off the floor then you need a different design than floor l...

For me it was angled cuts where t...
