What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

Just completed.

This table is 23" diameter by 29" height. The top is one inch plate with a drip groove on the underside. The legs are 4" x 3" x .120" x 2' joined at a twelve degree angle. I stick welded the legs to the top with 3/32" 6011. I also welded a .250" steel plate to the bottom of the legs with 7018. The 3" steel wheels were brazed to the bottom of the legs with silicon bronze as suggested by Jody. In hindsight, I should have degreased the wheel swivel bearings because they ended up smoking and depositing soot. I masked off the weld joints at the table top and spray painted her legs with one coat of hammered finish gray. Because of the rigidity of the top and legs, the table rolls over the brick patio smoothly, as expected, with no springing action. It is easily swiveled. Prior to this, I had the top balanced on a clay chimney flue tile. It's a few inches higher now and I think this height will be more ABC.
