Ran across this stuff looking for a used frame bench.
http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=135953  Looks almost feasible. Is the tube in tube close enough tolerance? |

QUOTE(cary @ Feb 12 2014, 08:20 PM)  Did you get a freight estimate yet? That part hurts the wallet a little. It's 12' x 5' and fully welded together by the 6 brackets, 800 lbs. They ship it freight. They're going to call me and arrange when to be at my shop to put this in my parking spot. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Well, one of them, as that's 2 in a row. $500 to ship from TN to CA (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net-11782-1392269588.1.jpg) That might be one I bought, as he said he has 2 there, and they just started making these late last year. Another imprssive shot of the thing, a customer sumitted to them. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/scontent-a-ord.xx.fbcdn.net-11782-1392269590.2.jpg) The unistrut stuff, you can get from the maker, their site is pretty cool, as is their product. I'm looking to get like 6 cross beams of 5', (though you may have to buy 10) probably the P1000T http://www.unistrut-direct.com/browse.php?...hannel&id=1 (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net-11782-1392269591.3.jpg) Some coin but I could spend more than that building my own probably, and have it come out taco'd. I watched a video on truck garage how-to series, and their floor was perfectly straight when they built one. Also, I don't know how they kept it from moving when they welded it. Also, If I built my own, it would have been only to mount a 914 on, so this one being modular/moveable was a big plus. |
