the frame supports are aluminum, the tops are 2-.625 OSB with galvanized steel for the top and for the shelf. 2 wheels swivel, 2 do not. I also made them the same height as my NuArc light table so total length is 20'. I also screwed some shower bins (the ones with the suction cups) to the fronts for storage of Olfa, squegees, etc etc. Makes EVERYTHING EASIER. A good table is vital.

Hi Rud, did you make those tables yourself? they're quite nice.
I've looked over the internet for the brand "Jethro's" but didn't find anything.
Are they welded or screwed together?
I am just about to finish converting my garage into my workshop, so I'll need to think something about tables.
Thanks,

they are "one of a kinds". Very simple design. They are welded. I have $350 in both tables and that is wholesale cost of materials, no labor. I rarely get good deals on anything but these I did. If you have a local metal fabricator I am confident they could handle this task. I can take additional pics if you need a better reference. Jethro is a friend of mine, I just slapped a sticker on them because I was so grateful he built them for me.

Hi Rud, If you could get some extra pictures it would be great. I hope to have my shop ready in a month or so and good tables will come in handy.
Thahks again for your help.
