Re: New welding table. I think I bit more than I can chew...

The first slab looks excellent...would be epic to have them surface ground, and epically expensive I'd wager. Keep on truckin' and don't be too sour when you need a new bit, that's allot of steel to chew through! I always enjoyed the black strip of paper on the lens of the hood you loan the helper ...

Re: Does any member have this cart?

I had what I believe is that cart along with an Eastwood tig and plasma cutter but I traded the whole works to a friend of mine. The quality was serviceable but nothing to write home about. I would call it adequate.

Re: Well I cut loose and have a CK Flexlock on the way

Nice. I just got a flexlock myself and fitted it with CK's steady-grip control. Love it so far.
I think you'll be very happy with yours.
