1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

The new owner of my van told me that DMV said its border line fraud that I just “gifted” him the van with out the pick in pull bill of sale that says it was sold to me. Even though i gave him the dmv paper work from me and a bill of sale

 

Ill drink to that.

 

I learned last week that transffering cars to other people is a royal pain in the ass. Just a bunch of government BS so the man gets his take of what is otherwise just another item.

 

Milwaukee >>>
Just bought the Milwaukee abrasive cut off saw. Going to try to buy steel this week. My dumbass didn’t realize they are closed on weekends. So hopefully next weekend I’ll build a welding table

 

Hope it serves you well

 

How thick of a top are you using?

 

Maybe 5/16 unless that sounds wrong

 

I have no idea what I'm doing but I think 1" is the minimum

 

I was just gunna use plywood...

 

Hello warp if you're going to be using it a lot

 

Oh no baby what is you doing

 

Then the body with 2x4 steel with 1/4” gusset

 

Go up to 1/2?

 

Go 3/8" at least IMO, unless you hardly ever plan on using it. But put lots of cross pieces under it regardless of what you do.

The one we use the most at work is around there. Dont have to worry about any warping that way.

 

There used to be an RC shop down the road from me. They had a half acre RC track in the back with hills and jumps and crap.

 

No lie thats what I use at my house.


Well, I put some concrete pavers on top then a small piece of sheet metal so its conductive. Tig only so it stays clean and I can control the heat.

 

Thats rad

 

It’s long gone. They replaced it with a parking lot for semis.
