The last time I had a welding table to use I also had a 
fork lift and small jib crane. I used to routinely put 
a ton or better on it but it. When I get my shop up and 
my own welding table I don't expect to be putting more 
than a couple hundred lbs. on it either, larger jobs 
will probably be done on the floor.

Still, there's no way to know what someone else is 
going to be doing so I brought it up.

I'll almost undoubtably be making my own welding table 
but you never know. Are these portable welding tables 
good units, reasonably priced, available, etc.?
