Surface table

Paul Hovnanian P.E. · 2008-11-27T19:31:01+00:00

I'm looking at getting some sort of surface table for doing measurementsand layout in my home hobby shop (so cost is an object and highprecision is not).I have a piece of scrap countertop granite (black) left over from akitchen remodel, about 18x24 inches by 0.75 inch thick. How would thismeasure up to commercially available tables?And how would one recommend mounting this thing? At least, I've got tothink about attaching handles to the sides to make picking it up easier.But what about a base with some feet to keep it from rocking on unevensurfaces? Any examples out there to follow?

The Enco grade B 12x18 is $24.95 The Grade A 12x18 is $36.95.

Now I can check my 8x12 on my 12x18. :-)
