Custom Tool Box Table (5/30-6/3)

We had a slow day at the shop and I asked if I could use some scrap aluminum to make a table for my tool box. My shop lead was fine with it so that I could get more practice with aluminum welding. After making the measurements my lead gave me some advice to set the support arms that were going to be welded on an eighth of an inch smaller than my measurement to compensate for the welder pulling the metal. Seeing as my box is too thin to tap for bolts I got to learn how to use a thread insert gun to use mounting bolts. Fun little project and got to practice aluminum welding.
