It was a big day. I mean BIG.

I received the metal. I had to re-cut most of it even after I gave them a cut sheet. At least most of the pieces were to long. To short would have been a real issue. There is another stack of metal in my driveway for the rest of the water tray.

I also received the laser cut pieces for the gantry. I really want a laser machine now. Moving on. Started assembling the lower table and realized just how big a 5 X 10 table is. When I drew it on the floor it sure didn’t look that large.

I made some changes “on the fly” to incorporate a storage rack for sheet stock, a cabinet for the plasma cutter and some tabs for mounting side panels for aesthetics. There is a lot of room under the table which seems to be wasted space so I’m sure there will be additions before the water table gets mounted over the top. The electrician shows up today so who knows what ideas he might come up with.

I stepped back, looked and laughed thinking Banjo Burt was watching and laughing. It looks just like one of his creations.

You know I have to make sure its perfectly square now.

Hypertherm Plasma cutter should show up today. Sad that it will stay boxed for a while.
