Teleposts as welding table legs

[DavidR8]

In the process of cleaning and organizing my garage I discovered that I have two complete teleposts and a couple of shorter pieces.
I wonder if they’d make reasonable legs for a welding table.

Teleposts?

That's a phrase only heard in Canukistan.

Dave, are you referring to jackposts? I don't see why not.

That's a phrase only heard in Canukistan.

Not very familiar in Canuckistan; translate?

I use scaffold feet with built in screw jacks on my welding table. Works great to lift it off its castors and make it nice and stable. I think you're on about something more like a acrow prop, though? Which I think should make excellent legs!

Acroprop? is this a foreign language? Canuckish?

Sorry, I don’t know another name for these things.

I think at one time they were known as “lally columns” but that may not be too current anymore.

Right!
Lally columns! That’s the other name that is banging around in the deep recesses of my brain.
Thanks Frank
