How Flat Are Your Welding Tables

One of the most common questions we get is: How flat are your welding tables? Here’s the deal—our A36 hot rolled steel plate tops are about as flat as you can get without machining or blanchard grinding.

  • Material – We use hot rolled A36 mild steel; it's rolled out of a coil at the factory, sheared to length, and laser-cut to size.
  • Flatness – Not perfectly flat like a milled or ground top, but flat enough for 90% of welding jobs.
  • Built for Real-World Use – Unless you're welding something like spacecrafts that require extreme precision welding, this table is flat enough for fabrication, welding, and shop work.
  • Affordable & Durable – We maximize flatness without adding unnecessary cost, making it a badass table at a great value.

For most welders and fabricators, our tables get the job done without breaking the bank.

How To Take Care of Your Workbench

Just got your Badass Workbench? Here’s what you need to know:

  • Assembly – If your bench includes pegboard, shelves, cabinets, or lights, you’ll need to install them. It’s straightforward, and if you have any mechanical ability, you’ll have no trouble.
  • Preventing Rust – We spray all tops with WD-40 before shipping. For long-term protection, reapply WD-40 or use Fluid Film—a great alternative that soaks into the metal without leaving a greasy residue.
  • Drawer Maintenance – Our drawers are built to last with no wearable parts, but we recommend greasing them once a year for smooth operation. If a drawer starts to stick, just hit it with a couple of shots of grease, and you're back in business.

That’s it! Minimal maintenance, maximum durability. Got questions? Reach out anytime!

Why do your drawers swivel instead of slide?

Our swing-out drawers aren’t just unique—they’re built to last a lifetime. Unlike traditional slide-out drawers, ours pivot on a 1-inch cold-rolled steel shaft, riding on a DOM bushing stock the shaft is machined slightly larger for smooth, grease-lubricated movement. No rollers, no bearings, no wearable parts.

  • Durability – Built to last forever, with zero sag or binding.
  • Full Access – Stay at your bench while reaching everything inside.
  • Heavy-Duty Strength – Rated for 450 lbs per drawer, but you'll overfill it before you overload it.
  • No Catching – No bottom lip, so tools won’t jam the drawer shut.
  • Max Storage – No bulky slides, so you gain cubic storage space.

Our drawers are made for efficiency, strength, and zero headaches. Kick them shut, load them up, and never deal with sagging slides again.

What is the difference between our USA and Import Stools?

At Badass Workbench, we’re proud to build American-made products but also offer imported stools as a budget-friendly alternative. We import the Garage Stool and Captain Stool, with key differences being:

  • Seat Cushion – Import stools are softer; USA stools are firmer for durability.
  • Casters – USA stools roll smoother with higher-quality wheels.
  • Threading – Import stools use metric single Acme thread, while USA stools have a double-cut Acme thread for faster height adjustments.
  • Models – Our USA-made stools include the Little Badass, Garage Stool, and Captain Stool, all built in-house.

Both options are tough, reliable, and built to last—whichever you choose, it’s a badass stool ready for the job.
