I will built a wood top for it, If the lift comes with a 24'' x 36'' top will be fine.

The best one is the one you get at auction.

Although I am not using one I have been following them for awhile. I started a suggestion but then realized your OP as sparse as it is, needs you to give some idea of need/use, then Google just one or two and you will be flooded with possibilities. elec, pneumatic; load size... then I think you will get some answers here. good luck.

I'm not settle yet with elec. or pneumatic, load size etc.... that's why I asked "Any recommendation from the ones who have lift tables". This is a cabinetmaking forum, I am gonna be using for cabinet assembling!!

We have both and I bought both at on line auctions. I paid about $1,500. The electric lift we use for assembly and general woodworking. The pneumatic we use to stack our panels on next to our CNC. As you pull a sheet off, the pneumatic, the lift raises the load up so that the sheets are still at the desired height. It is more difficult to adjust the height on the pneumatic. Good investment.

We have a few. All Southworth ones, some we bought new some at auctions. We have a rolling cart style one 32 x48 that we use for assembly. Worth every penny.

This is an Oklahoma manufacturing company that specializes in lift tables. Certainly an investment but one that will last.

Hope this helps.

Dont mean to turn this into a garage forum by bring Harbor Freight into it...but
we have a large 5'x10' Southworth electric-hydraulic scissor lift as our main assembly, cant beat it besides price...Has the mass and weight to fight back when sanding and can lift 2k lbs.
When we moved to a bigger space I wanted more lift tables for cab assembly but didn't want to spend the coin. Instead I bought two Harbor Freight motorcycle lifts and put 4x8 tops on them. It takes a foot pumping action to raise and lower them, and not a lot of mass, besides that they work great. They go on sale for 299.99 a piece, plus 20% off.

We've got a 5,000# lift at the beam saw, 2 - 2500# lifts bought new, in assembly and 2 - 1500# lifts that I bought used also for assembly. All are electric/hydraulic. All have been in constant use for years and no problems. So much nicer to work at just the right height! I installed steel I beams on the assembly benches so we could put a 10' melamine top on them w/o sag. All have the foot pedal control. Worth their price even if you have to buy new.

Check out the Felder FAT 300XL or 500. Or Barth makes a few differen models. The best price for a great quality table is a German company called R.E Beck

FORUM GUIDELINES: Please review the guidelines below before posting at WOODWEB's Interactive Message Boards (return to top)

  • WOODWEB is a professional industrial woodworking site. Hobbyist and homeowner woodworking questions are inappropriate.
  • Messages should be kept reasonably short and on topic, relating to the focus of the forum. Responses should relate to the original question.
  • A valid email return address must be included with each message.
  • Advertising is inappropriate. The only exceptions are the Classified Ads Exchange, Machinery Exchange, Lumber Exchange, and Job Opportunities and Services Exchange. When posting listings in these areas, review the posting instructions carefully.
  • Subject lines may be edited for length and clarity.
  • "Cross posting" is not permitted. Choose the best forum for your question, and post your question at one forum only.
  • Messages requesting private responses will be removed - Forums are designed to provide information and assistance for all of our visitors. Private response requests are appropriate at WOODWEB's Exchanges and Job Opportunities and Services.
  • Messages that accuse businesses or individuals of alleged negative actions or behavior are inappropriate since WOODWEB is unable to verify or substantiate the claims.
  • Posts with the intent of soliciting answers to surveys are not appropriate. Contact WOODWEB for more information on initiating a survey.
  • Excessive forum participation by an individual upsets the balance of a healthy forum atmosphere. Individuals who excessively post responses containing marginal content will be considered repeat forum abusers.
  • Responses that initiate or support inappropriate and off-topic discussion of general politics detract from the professional woodworking focus of WOODWEB, and will be removed.
  • Participants are encouraged to use their real name when posting. Intentionally using another persons name is prohibited, and posts of this nature will be removed at WOODWEB's discretion.
  • Comments, questions, or criticisms regarding Forum policies should be directed to WOODWEB's Systems Administrator

    You will be notified of responses to the message(s) you posted via email. Be sure to enter your email address correctly.

    WOODWEB's forums are a highly regarded resource for professional woodworkers. Messages and responses that are crafted in a professional and civil manner strengthen this resource. Messages that do not reflect a professional tone reduce the value of our forums.

    Messages are inappropriate when their content: is deemed libelous in nature or is based on rumor, fails to meet basic standards of decorum, contains blatant advertising or inappropriate emphasis on self promotion (return to top).

    Libel:   Posts which defame an individual or organization, or employ a tone which can be viewed as malicious in nature. Words, pictures, or cartoons which expose a person or organization to public hatred, shame, disgrace, or ridicule, or induce an ill opinion of a person or organization, are libelous.

    Improper Decorum:   Posts which are profane, inciting, disrespectful or uncivil in tone, or maliciously worded. This also includes the venting of unsubstantiated opinions. Such messages do little to illuminate a given topic, and often have the opposite effect. Constructive criticism is acceptable (return to top).

    Advertising:   The purpose of WOODWEB Forums is to provide answers, not an advertising venue. Companies participating in a Forum discussion should provide specific answers to posted questions. WOODWEB suggests that businesses include an appropriately crafted signature in order to identify their company. A well meaning post that seems to be on-topic but contains a product reference may do your business more harm than good in the Forum environment. Forum users may perceive your references to specific products as unsolicited advertising (spam) and consciously avoid your web site or services. A well-crafted signature is an appropriate way to advertise your services that will not offend potential customers. Signatures should be limited to 4-6 lines, and may contain information that identifies the type of business you're in, your URL and email address (return to top).

    Repeated Forum Abuse: Forum participants who repeatedly fail to follow WOODWEB's Forum Guidelines may encounter difficulty when attempting to post messages.

    There are often situations when the original message asks for opinions: "What is the best widget for my type of shop?". To a certain extent, the person posting the message is responsible for including specific questions within the message. An open ended question (like the one above) invites responses that may read as sales pitches. WOODWEB suggests that companies responding to such a question provide detailed and substantive replies rather than responses that read as a one-sided product promotion. It has been WOODWEB's experience that substantive responses are held in higher regard by our readers (return to top).
