Flat-pack metal table frame
https://london.hackspace.org.uk/storage/656
by Gregory Lees
12th Jan 2017 - 12th May 2017
Request for 4 months in the basement (Middle storage area)

The final tabletop dimensions will be approx. 1.2m x 0.75m. Assembled, the table will be 0.6m high, but the design is that it should break down into legs, a top panel and side panels.

Initially there will be a selection of steel box-section tubes. I will be cutting them and sliver soldering them together to make a metal frame that will later have wooden inserts added, but I will do that as a separate project.

***If no one replies to this topic the request will be automatically approved within 2 days.***

Um, my project deadline isn't until May. I've ordered parts and they will be arriving in the next few days. Can someone please reverse the "passed deadline" status.

I'm still actively working on this project, but I'm not going to be finished by the current deadline (tomorrow).  It seems I underestimated how much work was involved.  I need to drill a few more holes, weld some plates onto the tabletop, weld the legs onto the plates, and then finally weld tabs onto the frame to hold the wooden panels. 

Is it possible to extend the project deadline by a month to 25 June?  I think this should be enough time to get it finished.

For info on the current state, I have uploaded a picture of the work in progress (legs are laid up and will be welded soon, but can be detached by unbolting to flat pack)
