"...the man who really counts in the world is the doer, not the mere
critic-the man who actually does the work, even if roughly and imperfectly,
not the man who only talks or writes about how it ought to be done."

That looks pretty slick there. I think my next project will be to build a
larger and heavier frame for my hydraulic press. Then perhaps a table setup
similar to that.

If you use roller stands, drill press, etc, make it at a height where you
can use them all together. Or roll one next to the other and have a
component thing. Like when you have a long tail hanging off something you
are drilling on or pressing.

I kinda do that with my radial arm saw and my table saw. They sit side by
side, and I use one to support stock I am cutting on the other.

OK, I see. It's a _very_ open design. I guess the fence segments (gates?)
you make just exactly fit that spacing?
It looks painted. Does it conduct current at all or do you just clamp to
the work? Or do you just gas weld?
The simple idea of an angle iron frame seems like an elegant way to go.
Even if you added a lot more angle irons to make it a more closed design to
support smaller parts, the approach should still work well to make a very
strong table with lots of clamping options.
