Made a Shop Stand From CNC Plasma Scrap Metal

[Tmate]

Anyone with a CNC plasma cutting table knows that scrap steel can materialize in a hurry. I thought I would get rid of some of it by making a better stand for a small bandsaw I have sitting on a cheesy Harbor Freight stand. If I add some plywood shelves and top and some paint, I will have an art deco piece. I left some of the material uncut to give it some weight. It may not be any better than the Harbor Freight stand, but at least I got rid of some scrap.

Good use of what would otherwise be junk. There is a business in Billings MT that has made a fence from the scrap generated by the water jet business across the street.

Think I'll skip the paint job and use it as a mini welding station. I sat it on an old dolly with casters so I can move it around the shop.
