Save the $200 build your own fab table axle stands! I made mine out of all scrap metal!
What happens here
The final step demonstrates the utility of the fabricated components. The individual welded base plate assemblies, now acting as robust fixture components, are shown being attached to a larger, tubular metal structure. This larger structure appears to be a vehicle axle or frame component, indicating the fixture's purpose is to hold such items. The entire setup is placed on a specialized welding table, characterized by its grid of holes, which allows for precise clamping and positioning of workpieces. This assembly creates a stable and accurate platform for subsequent welding or fabrication tasks on the larger component.
Goal: Mount the fabricated welding fixture components onto a larger workpiece for precise positioning.
Tools and materials
- Clamps — Securing the fabricated fixture components and the larger tubular workpiece to the welding table
- Tubular metal workpiece — The larger metal component (e.g., vehicle axle, frame) that the fixture is designed to hold
- Welded base plate assemblies — The completed fixture components being mounted and used
- Welding table — Providing a stable, flat surface with a grid of holes for precise clamping and positioning of workpieces and fixtures
