Built this from 2" square tubing. Wall thickness of 1/8"
Decided to use metal as it is rigid and possible with this frame structure. Does not vibrate under operation.
Very easy to roll around with 4" caster.

This was a bigger project than usual.

Nice job. I don't do metal work, but I'm glad you have the skills and tools.

Thanks for the comments. Welding does open up a big opportunity in creating fixture and tools for wood working. High recommend it.
