If you are an average carjunkie, like us here at BANGshift, then we know that you are always looking for the best bang for your buck on tools and equipment for your garage. And when you want a fab or welding table, and only have a two car garage to work out of, then you are likely looking at one of the reasonably priced options from Harbor Freight, Vevor, Klutch, etc. And for many folks, maybe that’s all they need, but with some of the mods below you can make those tables significantly more useful.
But which mods are the things that you should spend your time and money on? Check out the video below and see how they stack up to what you want to do for your own projects.
Video Description:
These small welding tables have increased in popularity over the last several years. They are great little table for the DIY guy who doesn’t need a full blown welding table and might be tight on space. That said, I set out to modify my table to perform better for my needs. Here are 5 easy modifications you can make to your @harborfreight Titanium welding table. You can easily adapt these mods to a Vevor or Klutch welding table as well. I’ll cover how to attach casters to the table to make it more mobile. Next I’ll tackle possibly the most valuable modification, a modular tool mount made from a weld-in hitch reciever and 2″ hitch mount. This modification will allow you to attach any tool you see fit with a 2″ hitch tube. I plan to eventually mount a bead roller and shrinker stretcher metal working tools in this same fashion. I’ll show you a quick way to mount a vise to this system. The third modification will utilize metal peg boards and accessories from @HomeDepot. Modification number four will be super simple grinder and clamp racks made from 1″ wide 1/8″ thick flat stock. I’ll also bolt on a U.S. General magnetic tool holder to this rack to help control loose clamps. Finally, a lower shelf can be easily made from 18 gauge sheet metal in short order.
