Laboratory Mobile Table — Step by Step in Aluminum Extrusion (Build Video)
Share
What this build is
A mobile table engineered for a laboratory — one of the strongest, most adaptable structures we have built. Heavy 4040 and 5050 aluminum extrusion carries the load, wood panels give the working surfaces, 3D-printed brackets and heavy-duty castors handle the details. It rolls, and it does not flex.

- Aligning the mixed-size frame with the 40 to 50 alignment jigs

- The finished table under load
