Inspired from Weiss Bros display boom table.

Weiss Bros display table

Based on CONRAD LR1750 #99921-02 Boom reducer:

Conrad part #99921-02

It's 1:10 of scale, made of 3/4" & 1/2" steel tubing. I believe it could probably hold 10 times my weight, but that was not the idea... Confused

I have hired some professionals for the welding as I am not equipped for that part of the job. Credits to the folks at AD Metal for their patience.

The seat is removable and will be replaced by a 1/2" plexiglass surface for display, if I ever take it to a show or else.

I first thought about painting the ends sections in black, as per Mammoet's scheme, but I like the details through the red paint, and it will make my life easier later on as I decide to do spray can touch ups. Keep in mind it will be my work bench, so it will be stained and scratched over time... Think

Looks good. Applause

Excellent job,by the welders.Looks like you can just plonk/sit on it,knowing it can take weight.It's obviously robust enough to go to shows/fairs.Love that walkway,nice detail.

Heh this is very cool indeed. It must weigh a fair bit!

Thanks guys.

I too was curious about the weight, but it tips just 23 lbs flat. It looks heavier than it is.
