??? At one of the startup companies i worked for in the last century we scrounged for a lot of things . One of the things that someone brought in was a stainless table from a old commercial kitchen . I needed a place to mount a vise & I took that table flipped it over & pulled the legs & mounting setup & bought a cheap slab interior door & trimmed it to fit inside the bottom of the table & secured the stainless top to the door & attached the legs & bolted my vise to the table . We used that table for several years . Back then I don't think I paid much more than 60 bucks for the door . Last interior solid core slab I bought was @ 100 bucks . I have no idea where they are at the big box stores . If there's a Habitat for Humanity place in the area they can be a source for solid doors sometimes .

A good, solid door is 175 and you still end up with a diy hack job. The u.s. general 42 inch cabinet can be had for 480 on coupon day (20% off) or 432 if you also open a credit card on the same purchase (10% off the entire purchase that day). These are a beast. One of the guys in my machinist club has had one under his lathe for the past 20 years.

Thanks for the nice comments!! The stainless-steel table is nice but not heavy enough and is just a temporary resting place until I can find of fabricate a heavier steel table. This kinda "fell in my lap" with no notice and it is very complete with a lot of accessories so it's going to be a fun winter project!!
