Version 2 Product Update!
Our 30×48 (Version 2) Weld Table DIY Kit comes in a 3/16″ top with 5/8″ holes spaced 4″ apart – That’s 96 holes for flexible fixturing in its 8 x 12 hole grid pattern. Of course, these tables completely bolt together which means NO WELDING! We know that’s kinda crazy for a welding table.
We continue to build more accessories for this unique table and we’ve even laser-cut holes in the legs for mounting accessories and fixtures.
Our 30″ x 48″ (actual size 29.5″ x 47.5″ for shipping purposes!) welding table top is the perfect solution for portable welding or confined spaces. Laser cut from 3/16″ A36 steel plate, this top comes professionally assembled and ready to put to use!
This kit includes the same standard 5/8″ holes as all of our welding tables, meaning you can use a wide range of fixturing accessories. 5/16″ nuts and bolts fit perfectly for any reason you can come up with.
A Note About Flatness
These little welding carts are pretty darn flat! However, no table in the world is going to be perfectly flat without either having a whole lot of mass (say a solid block), or a serious support infrastructure. Since these tops have a 2″ rib infrastructure they are VERY strong, and the ribs help to flatten out the top, however since they lack sidewalls to support the edges that is where you may see some drop off in flatness. We’re not saying that these tables are all wavy and crooked! But you could see some variance from edge to edge… maybe 1/16″-1/8″. But if you compare this to our heavy duty tables, they are generally flat to the tune of hundredths of an inch, owing to their much heavier duty build.
What you do get from this table is extreme light weight combined with rugged build quality and a high degree of versatility – and at a price that no one else can match with anything even close. However, if you really want SUPER flat, and CRAZY strong, we recommend you take a look at the Heavy Duty 30×40 table. With it’s 6″ rib infrastructure and sidewalls it’s much flatter and heavier. And you can always add table extensions to grow it as needed. It’ll cost about $400 more, but everything about it is an upgrade. And if you add the sidewall adapters to the 30″x48″ there is even less price difference. Just something to consider. 😉
Which Is Right For You? Version 2 or Version 3?
We have two variants of this table: Version 2 (3/16″ Top with 5/8″ holes spaced 4″ apart) and Version 3 (1/4″ Top with 5/8″ holes spaced 2″ apart). PS: You’re viewing 30″ x 48″ Welding Table DIY Kit Fully Assembled! (Version 2 – 3/16″ Top).
Got my table late yesterday and put it together today. I really took time to make sure everything was square and true, and got all the accessories welded on. The only thing that I could complain about was that one corner on the table was slightly bent in shipping. Not TMW’s fault!
Got my 30×48 table a few weeks ago and it’s such a great quality piece for something so easy on the budget. The guys stayed a little late at the shop that day and helped me load it up, as well as wrap it to keep the rain off the fresh steel, due to me having to drive home in the rain. Great product and good people to deal with.
Works great, and super handy that it’s on wheels for the shop.
The table is not quite fully assembled you will have to weld the leg braces on, thankfully you have a or should have a welder. Overall I am very satisfied with the quality of the table and how fast and easy it was to assemble. I looked at 3 other tables within $300 -$500+ and i think this a a great table for the home welder or small shop. I would consider a bigger table if I had the room. Thank you Texas Metal Works for providing a quality work surface. I know I will get some good years of service out of this product, it was well worth the investment. Full disclosure I have already purchased table accessories and have built metal and wood projects on this unit. Thank you again TMW!!!
John was great answering my questions and having the table assembled was appreciated. I found out I was local to his shop and he actually delivered it to my house…thx John!
