Hello guys,

Anyone have an experience with Certiflat welding tables from a company called Tab and Slot? Link to their site attached below. They require DIY welding to assemble and look like a sturdy design.

It would be very difficult to assess a company
that has been in business for less than a year. :?

I don't see on there web site the specs for the table. Like how thick are the tops. It looks like there are lots of interlocking pieces that should give it lots of strength but it might be a challenge to not warp it as you weld it together.

Pro Series Table Kits are build from tough 3/16" Hot Rolled Pickled & Oiled Steel using state of the art CNC Laser Cutting technology for an exceptional fit-up. (copied from web site)


Video says 3/16 thick top, I think it is all 3/16

3/16 will probably make a solid table. I'd go slow on the assembly process to make sure it stays flat. I saw a guy warp a 8in x 8 in x 1/2in mounting plate by welding a 2x2x1/4 square tube in the center.

You may try a farm or shop auction. Sometimes you get lucky and find one no one else wants to haul away.

Thanks folks, I am looking and shopping around for a good table. Trouble is i am running out of room in my tiny shop and having no luck converting the living room into a living shop.

Did you ever find this video on YouTube?
I stumbled across it today while looking for something else, and it's the review from an owner who bought a couple of the heavier tables (1/4" steel from his comments) , and filmed the process of assembling the second one.
