I bought this table at an auction several years ago.  It was part of a lot that included a 
Van de Graaff generator that for some reason I had to have.  I have no idea what it was used for as it was covered in gauges and electronic giszmos, but it looked like a good base for a molding bench.
I still have to put a top on it so that it can be used as a table when I am not casting.  It sure beats storing sand in buckets...
