I ordered the 50×100 table and received it in great condition. The table is solid and extremely flat. I have been using it for about 4 weeks and it has changed how accurate I can be and is much more efficient than welding on a sheet table. I also ordered fixtures tools and am loving the quality of those as well. I have left reviews on Google and Facebook and will be Happy to suggest Texas Metal Works to anyone who needs a high quality fixture table and is also on a budget.

Serious table for serious work

Texas Metal Works tables are not cheap; they are actually quite expensive (compared to box store offerings). That being said, these tables are a great value. Serious tables for those who want to do real quality, serious work. TMW tables are on a completely different level of quality and craftsmanship than the crappy offerings from Northern Tool or Harbor Freight. I am a hack fabricator / welder, but my skill level increased five-fold with this table. The tables were designed by folks who know what the fitter/welder needs to make quality welds: A heavy work platform with no give that is flatter than flat, built for use with a system of stops and clamps that keeps the work in place at the proper angle and position while you weld.

When I bought this table and all the stops and clamps and extensions, I thought that I was spending too much. Splurging. As soon as the table arrived and was outfitted in place, the splurging feeling changed into an investing feeling. A very satisfied feeling. I had invested in a high quality tool ( like buying a good Wilton Machinists vise or a Quincy Air Compressor) that becomes an heirloom. Your son or daughter will also value this table one day if that is their direction. By the way, you really need to get a good array of the stops, clamps, extensions to really unleash the power of these tables. Also, all of the advice provided by the Pozadzides is quite sound and valuable; get the pallet fork extensions for unloading (if you live on a farm), the WD-40 by the gallon for protecting the table, and the magnet handles for lifting and handling the table covers. The table was well packed and delivered, with no surprises thanks to the pallet fork extensions.

Do yourself a favor and invest in a quality fabricating and welding table. Texas Metal Works is it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. The only downside is that you can’t use “crummy equipment” anymore as an excuse for bad welds once you have one!

Love these! Glad I got with my order as they have already been needed and used on my first build with your table. Love the fact that I can have on side to widen table or move the to end to lengthen table. I love the flexibility of how many ways they can be used, on the sides, ends or on top if I need a wall. Glad I have them!!!
Only suggestion for these is if you could incorporate the grid pattern you have etched on the table top to continue onto these. Would think not too difficult for programming into CAD when cutting out as you have everything else matching up so well when you are cutting out. But then again I am not a programmer, just a suggestion for future tables and as you grow your company 🙂

There is no review on the leveling feet I never really got.
I sent an email to John on 6/26/24 following up on the box of what should have been my missing 8″ T-clamps and missing leveling feet. I was sent the 300mm T-clamps and leveling feet screws. I received the box broken up and only 3 of the leveling feet were in there, not 6 that my table requires. Again, I never heard back from anyone at Texas metals after sending John this last email.
I am sending you this review as I want to see your company grow and continue. If I can help you get over your growing design pains, it ultimately helps me. I think you have a great welding table design and products to go with it. Your products are helping me give my customers a better quality product where we all win. At the same time, for $9000 I paid, I don’t think I should have to be spending the hours I will need to to correct simple design flaws that QC should have caught. Thank you, David Hill

These are great, but as I noted on the 4″ sliding stops the hole on the end was distorted and I had to ream out. I then had to square up the front side so that it is square.
These are great with the 1/2″ ball pin locks to help set up, be able to move and adjust as a stop and then lock down easily by hand. I had to ream out and square up all 12 of my sliding stops, not 8 as I previously stated. I am slowly filing down the bulge that is created at the crease/bend by the brake. I am doing this so that I have a true flat square plane. Thats just me fine tuning my equipment to my needs.
But I think for the cost and overall order I should not have to ream out all 12 of the 16mm holes.

I love these for stops and being able to adjust and tighten down into place. But the 1hole on the end is distorted so that I can not get a ball lock pin into it. This was the first email I sent to John on 6/6/24. I speculated the hole was cut first and then the whole piece is put into a break and bent and when this happens it distorts the hole. I was able to clamp and center in my bridgeport and chase with a 16mm reamer. I then had to square up the front side as it was not square to the work. I milled down the front and then cleaned up with had file to make square. I had to do this to all 8 of my sliding stops. I am also having to file down the “bulge” created at the bend/crease so that I can have a complete flat side on vertical and horizontal sides of the sliding clamps to be able to use as a squared flat stop,
This is me fine tuning the tooling for my use/purpose and getting to know my tooling. Not that you should, but the hole should definitely be reamed out to fit the 16mm tooling you sell to go with this table.

I love this table! great design and ability to change and use for different jobs and set ups. Wish I had sooner but happy to have now. Makes my welding jobs so much more accurate and easier to set up with with the accessories you provide to go with it. Solid enough that when I stand on it, there is NO movement and easier to move around when needed then a 2000lbs cast iron table.
I also appreciate Kirk taking the time to answer all my questions before ordering and recommending I get your newer design with the 16mm holes for future tooling needs. Appreciate grid pattern cut into top of table for ease of setup. After a few phone calls and and Q&A, I knew I wanted your table and not some of the others out there on the market. Your design is best for my needs and use.
The negative issues that will follow on some of your items are for learning and to hopefully to improve upon. I will definitely be ordering more items from you as this table is the best tool in my shop. And if I can help you improve your tooling and learning curve, that will eventually help me be a better welder, artist and fabricator.
