Laminar flow hood table ideas
    #22096786 - 08/15/15 10:35 PM (8 years, 5 months ago)

Hey guys!

Now that I've got most of my flow hood stuff ordered and on its way I need to come up with a decent idea for a table to use. So far I've been looking around at both heavy duty card tables and stainless steel tables, but with the latter I can only find ones that are 24'' deep and that just wont cut it! My flow hood alone will be ~25'' deep and I want at least 12'' in front of that for workspace, so I'm looking for something that is 36'' deep and anywhere from 36-48'' in width

You guys mind sharing any ideas or pictures of your setup? Looking to spend under $150 on this

Thanks in advance

-Mike

You will want more than 12" of work space in front of the flow hood.  get a half sheet of 3/4" plywood.  Paint all surfaces with two coats of paint.  Put it on two saw horses. put the flow hood in  back and a piece of glass in front for a cleanable surface.

Thanks for this suggestion mycoloco. What type of paint are we talking here? How big of saw horses would I need?

So I went ahead and purchased a couple of saw horses for $35 from Harbor Freight, and then a 3/4'' thick MDF board for the table top from Lowes for $31. Will need to go back to Lowes to pick up glass

Total costs:

Sawhorses $35
MDF 3/4'' $31
Paint + Primer $10
Glass ?

Total: $76 (before glass)

Hopefully the glass isn't too expensive but I think that it will put me under $100 for a perfect sized table for my room, and it will be easily transportable when we move again.

Harbor freight sucks. I wouldn't want my legs under anything from there.
