    This is a video of a welding/fabrication table which I built for my home shop.

    This welding table has a reasonable number of holes. I have seen tables poked with hundreds of holes to the point it jeopardizes the strength of the top plate and not enough metal left to absorb the welding heat. If you want the peace of mind, clear everything under the holes and keep your clamps and other tools as is at the periphery of the table.

    Thanks. Yes, I have seen tables with a lot more holes. I designed the fixture clamps which I made in another video to work within the hole spacing on this table.
