Boat Trailer Jacks Bolted Onto Shop Table
Bob Payne, Coldwater, Miss.: “A couple of years ago I got a good deal on a heavy steel shop table, but I wasn’t sure where to place it in my shop. Putting the table against a wall would limit its use for big projects, and putting it in the middle of the shop would take up too much space. Instead I welded angle irons between the legs on both sides of the table, about 6 in. above a shelf, and then bolted boat trailer jacks onto them.
    “To move the table I just crank the jack handles a few times to raise the table off the floor. Once the table is in place, I lower the table legs back onto the floor to keep flat spots from forming on the jack wheels.”
