wrenchguy,  why don't you make your own ?

4"  or 6"  steel weld flanges with steel pipe,  you can make them to the height that you want.

just an idea, Frank

I do as my posting on the g-journel (below)states.  but some want ol school/timey cast ones.


I'm offering my sons machine shop and scrap services. He has steel plate in stock to 1" thick. Some times he has thicker stuff to offer. He can machine or track cut any size u might need if he has it. he can bore anything u may need. we can ship these parts knocked down flat on pallet for you to assembly weld. We can assembly weld it and ship also. we don't have a plate shear. he gets different sized structual too. pm me.

think outside the box with this post. grinder, drill press stands, custom size h-d benches, etc
