To complete the frame extensions, I had to cut and weld the angled face plates in place. I mounted the extension frames back into the base frame to make sure everything was working properly after welding. It gave me also a chance to measure the overall length of the table! 259 1/4″ is the total length of the table base with the extensions all out. The last missing pieces on the base frame are the angled skits, and today I was able to tack weld the first one in place. Here are the pictures!

Tack welding the face plates in place. -
I made little jigs to make sure I have the correct offset. -
Finish welding the face plates. -
I made little internal stops for the extension frames and welded them in place. -
I can adjust the stops individually! -
Tack welding the first angled side skirt in place. It’s coming together.
