30×60 DIY table ordered!

Can't wait to see your progress!!! And thanks for your confidence in giving it a try. :-) I think other people will be really curious to hear about your progress and how it goes for you!!!

[postquote quote=36766] Hey John, I tried posting a reply with some updates and pictures but it just disappeared when I clicked submit. Any idea what’s going on or if I’m doing something wrong? Maybe needs review because of the pics? Thanks!

That’s super weird! I’m not aware of any issues, but I’ll let our tech guys know and have them look into what might have happened and get back to you. I can’t wait to see the updates! So we’ll figure it out so you can actually get it updated!

My package arrived earlier this week and I made some decent progress! The heat has been brutal so work has been a little slow... The TMW flat pack pallet is a tidy little package, no problem having all my other crap in the way and still getting the wife’s car in the garage. Everything looks great, quality materials and no damage in shipping. [attachment file="36857"] [attachment file="36858"] Fit up was pretty easy, just had to knock down the dross around the edges and rib paths. [attachment file="36859"] [attachment file="36860"] Adjusting for flat was a little more of a PITA. To be clear it started great, less than 5 thou in the “X” and “Y” direction, but had a bit of a twist in the diagonal, around ~12 thou. After a lot of hammering and some strategic pry bar I got it down to about 7 thou. Very pleased with that for a DIY deal and just hope it holds through welding! Going to go very slow and deliberate. [attachment file="36861"] Got the 144 rib-to-top "large" tacks done and then ran out of gas... The external rib plug welds and legs are going to have to wait. So far everything has gone smooth and is very DIY-er friendly! I'm very happy with the quality of the kit and instructions, cant wait to finish! [attachment file="36862"]

Looks like it shook loose, thank you! I’ve got some work to do on the pictures, will try again tonight.

I don't know why the images from imgur didn't embed correctly unless they are blocking cross-site embeds now. But I edited your post by grabbing the images and just uploading them here as well so it's all good! Having said that - the top looks great! Good job!!! Can't wait for you to get the mounting plates and legs on it so you can start using it to build some cool stuff!!! I mean, not that building the table isn't cool. ;-) But once that's done, it'll be amazing to see all the projects you're going to do on it afterwards!!!
