I have to make good use of what space I have in my Garage. With working on sleds, milling machine and lathe , beer fridge(most important) and welders , space can be at a premium. I have what looks like a huge cart in my shop. but it is what I use to store my sleds in the summer. They stay in the garage year round, to many issues with mice in the years past. The problem is that I have no where to put the cart when the sleds are off. It is a double deck storage cart. One sled in the bottom. Tilt the top deck down and winch the second sled on top. Tilt it back down and the ramp at the back acts as part of the frame to support the weight of the sleds and fold down to lock into the bottom. So when the sleds are off it becomes one of those valuable flat surfaces where stuff seems to migrate over winter.

Now what I was thinking the other day was that I need some sort of table that I can use when I am using the tig. Looking at the side of the sled rack I figured I could make a table on there and make it so when not in use it will fold down on the side. I have fire blankets I can put on there when the sleds are in place during the summer. Just got to move a few sleds out so I can make some room to build this thing. I think 24-36" wide and 48" long by 36" high should give me a decent table. Make it out of 1x1x.125 and steel top should be sturdy enough. The rack it self must be close to 600 pounds or more.
