This was my first project which I finished a few weeks ago. I managed to make something useful out of forty feet of angle iron that I purchased several months ago.
That's a Beaumont Metal Works KMG grinder (made right here in central OH). I thought the welding aspect went pretty well, but I found out I need a better/ bigger welding table. I bought one of those folding Harbor Freight tables on sale which was OK for holding practice pieces but fell short when assembling this. I wound up just laying it out on the garage floor.
What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

Nice job with the stand. What I really like is the belt sander. I've never seen one like it and I've got belt sander envy.

I'm joining the Belt Sander Envy queue.
Compared to your belt sander, mine looks small, insignificant and ineffectual.

Good job.
Yes, it is always nice to have a welding table to assemble projects. Wheels make a big difference between weld time and your wife wanting the garage back.
Carry on!

Yes, it's indeed a great job.
Welding table really helps in assembling different projects. I always make use of welding table.

[quote="Wolfgang"]Here is my grinding station. I have the same grinder since 9 months and love it's versatility!
A front and back view of the whole setup.
Very nice! I love it! Especially the tubing attachment. Nice work!
