Nice work Bob! Another tool saved from the scrapyard.

Great Job!!

Good fix! Your into a right and most of the time tools are collecting dust so less $$$ tied up.👍👍

Nice rebuild

No bullshit, No blabbering bla bla crap, Straight on topic. Thanks a lot man. Keep up the good God's work. Love from India 🇮🇳

Great job . Hard work

Doublewide6 excellent video!👍🏼 Great find & Bringing the table lift back to service it reminds me when I was a journeyman Ironworker where you have to persuade the steel to bend and tack weld the material as you are aware having the tools to do the job is key ! Thanks!

Nice work! You definitely left it better than you found it!

Nice job!

Came out great Nice 👍

thanks for the resume, you obviously have handy skills, but I learned nothing about fixing the hydraulics/ lift mechanism on a lift table.

Apparently the hydraulics were OK on this project? If it Ain't Broke, Don't Fix it.

Good Job

great job sir

Good job

Nice job buddy

just found your video, great job....tucson, az

Just started watching your channel you do great work , keep it up I will be watching thanks.

Don't need to see another video to subscribe. Hope to see more like this one.

You know i would love this. Great work and fun with the family and the end to.

Great project for sure! Really like the way you replaced the sheet steel on the top, similar to the rusted mower deck you repaired, tucking that one away for future reference. For DIY welder...you really get the job done.

You really should use the guard on your angle grinder. It could save you a lot of hurt down the road.

Very crafty!!! Good job! Keep posting and stay healthy👍

That table will really come in handy! Good job!

Good solid table. Most projects seem to require more work than first thought.

Nice addition for $45! Your back will thank you ! I enjoy your videos, Thanks!

Really nice job. I put a piece of 3/4 inch exterior plywood on my cart and added an oak strip at the end of the plywood so equipment would not fall off of the end. Also extended the plywood by 3 inches on the two sides and on the end away from the handle. Painted it with marine varnish and has worked really good for 4 yrs. now. Thanks for great video.

Awesome project. Turned out great. Thanks.

Great project Bob. It was a lot of work but it looks like it turned out well. Hope you and the family are doing ok. Stay Safe. Stay Healthy. God Bless!!!

Amazing job! Well done!

Nice job! Saved a lot of $$$ and now you have a nice lift! The main thing was the ram wasn't bent.

Excellent scrap yard save!! For the $42 & unexpected extra time into that table, it will hopefully last years & pay for itself 20x over. Great welding techniques & tips, really enjoy the ever-changing content on your channel!!

Great job! Worth all the effort!

Great job! I just bought one at an estate sale and the jack leaks down pretty quickly. Best advice replace the jack or rebuild it?

Very nice job, it looks strong and easy to use

Nice job man, recycle/reuse.

Great video Bob .

Pretty good buy there. I bolted on a 3/4 piece of plywood to make mine about 6 inches wider and a couple of inches longer. Comes in real handy getting heavy stuff in and out of my truck bed. I also use it like a work bench for my push mower (got that idea from Bruce Pender’s channel).

Awesome fix man!

Good on you mate. Love your attitude and commitment. Nice seeing your family over the years too. Thanks from Australia for all the great videos. 👍

Way to go DW, you saved another piece from the trash to be used again . That's recycling at it best. Thanks for sharing and stay safe.

Great job

Good job a lot of work but worth it in the end 👍

It may have taken alot more to do but you have done a great job wish i had one

Playing catch up.. nice lift Table.. sometimes having to scrap something apart to make good is the only way.. that metal is heavy stuff even the old truck wouldn't bend it right.. good one mate

good for mowers and such

Would recommend you Invest in a nice heavy vice and a heavy metal workbench. It will work a lot better then the driveway for straightening things

Nice job

Hi, question, I turned my lawn mower upside down to look at blade and realized the gas was leaking. I have not tried to run it. I am curious if I should have it looked at or will it be ok to run it?

Kinda late now... but maybe for you next project... Your flattening with the truck didn't work because at the most pressure (guessing on the weight of your truck) you were able to apply would be only 1 3/4 ton on the corner, up to possibly 3 1/2 ton, if you lifted the whole front of the truck off the ground. Plus you have to bend it past where you want it to be, so it will spring back to where you want it. With it flat on the ground you can't. If you had blocked the table with 2x4's in a "U" shape around the dent, and tried pressing with the jack point under the center of the truck, you possibly could have bent it back with that little of weight applied. Or used something heavier to push against. And don't try and flatten it in one shot... work your way towards the worse part of the dent. I have bent steel like that, but I use my 12 ton stealth camper and a 20 ton jack and wood blocks. And you still have to "shrink" the metal afterwards or it will oil can or be wavy. And a cement floor with a hammer won't work either. You have to have steel dolly or a block of wood behind it in order to work it with a hammer. That is why blacksmith's anvils aren't concrete. You are lucky you didn't crack your floor. Hitting it harder doesn't always work, it actually makes it worse in some cases. You have to work the metal, don't let the metal work you... You were adding to the dent by not hitting it flat with the hammer, you were "stretching" the metal, when you actually needed to "shrink" the metal. You should have used a shrinking hammer. And when you are doing a piece with a lip, don't straighten the lip until after you get the metal "around the corner of the lip" straight. And then you will need to shrink the lip. By bending it straight first, you are adding to the resistance of getting the other side straight because the lip is already "stretched". Best to just let the lip do it's thing until you get close to it, then bend it out of the way, not straight. After the one side it straight or where you want it, shrink or stretch the lip. If you are using heat, you have to work the edge of the dent, get it cherry hot, hammer it flatter, then quench it, move over to the edge of the spot you just did, repeat, following the outside curve of the dent, then working towards the center. Same as doing car body work, but you aren't "tapping" on it, you are hitting it slightly harder. I repair wrecked trailers and bent mower decks using all of these techniques depending on what needs to be done... Use those rails you ripped off or find some scrap steel and practice...

On mine it drop at a good speed with no weight on the table but with weight on it very slow to drop. Any suggestions ?

I picked up a similar model today and I have one dent on the table. My problem is that it won't go down for me.

Bent table on top, could mean underside in not lined-up properly to scissor smoothly?

At our current scrap prices 175 lbs is worth less than 10 bucks.

You were victorious in the end but the labor was too much even for a curb find.. (says the guy who puts in too many hours on a lawn mower to flip for a $70 profit)

How much would that lift table cost brand new🙄🙄

Sure it took awhile Dw but you got a pretty darn nice lift table as a result. Nice work man.

I think you made out like a bandit, A $700.00 lift for 45. bucks and a little work. You saved some money there. Great video!!

Your neighbors must have loved this project

Nice lift.

Awesome repair alot work my i ask you ?whey did you make a new top for it

Very Good!... #87 ✝ {7-4-2022}

Nice job, only criticism if it was mine i would have drilled holes to punch out the pins right away. Something well worth your effort and now having a table like that,

@donaldguffey6883

10-4 on drilling the holes for punching out the pins. Good idea.

Safety last with the cut off wheel. Cut off wheels come apart and can do some serious damage.

very nice $47 and a few hours labor, YT video, you got yourself a useful tool for the shop and only thing that went to the scrapper is the bent/broken metal

@donaldguffey6883

And if you only need a shorter length piece, you can re-purpose even the bent metal.

Wow, you did a lot of work on that table but it will be well worth it. Great job of metal work and welding. Did you say your press was a new tool? Does not look like a Harbor Freight press so is it from Northern tool or did you find a used one. Press worked great. Thanks for sharing the video. Stay safe.

That was awesome.. Are there any tools 🔧 you don't have?

nice job a lot of work but it will pay for it self over the lone run every time you use it

Shop 101- how to make a potato chip 🤔

Great video sir. May I ask, where'd you get the "My other vehicle" t-shirt? ???

Seems like for all the work for a huge top patch it might have been simpler to cover the whole top with a new piece and weld at the edges rather than inserting the patch.

I was thinking that also. Maybe DW was using metal he had at hand, without buying more?

That’s a really nice table. I bet the first gut barely got $10.00 for it. A 250 lb lift HF one is $170.00.

Got yourself a Pender lift cart for 1/3 of the price new!!

Anything's possible when you're double wide

Man when you were pounding on that table top all i could think of was im glad your not my dentist turn out ok

Seems that the basic tool kit for you Yanks is, an oxy acetylene set, an angle grinder and a full range of hammers. I guess one can beat anything into submission. Just sayin!!!

Great score! If you can repair something yourself I say why not! I added a plywood top for a little overlap on mine and now I fit mower decks no problem. 👍🏼👍🏼 from this guy!
