Welded Steel Table Leg Plans | U, X, Trapezoid & Box | 5 Heights | No CNC
Weld your own modern industrial table legs in four classic styles, sized for every common table height. From a working Bethlehem, PA fabrication shop. Everything is cut from 2" x 2" 11 ga square tube on a chop saw or bandsaw. The odd X and trapezoid angles are worked out for you to 0.1°, and every leg is a flat frame you weld on a flat table. No CNC needed.
