Slide 6 t nuts into the top side of the 1000mm extrusion. (repeat for other beam)
For the 300mm beams, 2 pairs of 2 will be identical, one "I" shaped, and one "C" shaped.
For the C-shaped beam, Slide two t-nuts into one rail. Attach the corner brackets at the ends, ensuring the bracket is flush with the beams end. *Always use the side of the bracket with a flat face (non-lipped) first. This ensures you can get a tool onto the 2nd bolt without being blocked.
For the I-Beams, repeat the same steps for the C-beam, but on both sides.
Repeat so you have 2 I-beams and 2-C beams.
*Optional* Add bolts to all remaining bracket holes and loosely attach t-nuts. (as seen in the right two beams in image 3)
Step 2 - Table Build- Top deck 2
Tools
1/2" Socket Wrench
Parts
Assemblies from previous step
Steps
If you have already attached the bolts/and t-nuts from the optional step - Slide beams into the upper channel (as seen in image 1) Otherwise, thread the nuts into the channel and attach LOOSELY with bolts.
Repeat for the bottom rail.
Secure the C beams in place with the socket wrench, but leave the I-beams LOOSE as they will need to be shifted later.
Step 3 - Table Build- Top deck 3
Tools
1/2" Socket Wrench
Parts
Assembly from previous step
4x Steel Corner Brackets
32x M8x20 Bolts
32x M8 washers
32x t-nuts
Steps
On the exterior corner of the 4080 extrusion, slide 3 t-nuts into each top/bottom rail.
Secure corner plate to rale with accompanying 6 bolt/washer combos.
Add 2 additional bolt/washer/t-nut combos to the 2 remaining vertical holes. Keep these very loose as we'll slide them into another assembly later.
Repeat on all corners.
Step 4 - Table Build - Side Legs 1
Tools
1/2" Socket Wrench
Parts
4x 800mm 4040 Aluminum extrusion
2x 300mm 4040 Aluminum extrusion
4x corner Brackets
8x M8x20 Bolts
8x M8 washers
8x t-nuts
Steps
Slot 2 t-nuts into one rail of the 300mm extrusion
Secure corner brackets on the rail, ensuring that the ends are flush with the beam.
Slide a t-nut into a rail on the 800mm extrusion about 12in from the end.
Secure one side of the short beam to the long beam.
Repeat on the other side.
Repeat steps 1-5 so you have 2 "H" assemblies.
Step 5 - Table Build - Side Legs 2
Tools
1/2" Socket Wrench
Parts
2 "H" Assemblies from previous step
Top deck Assembly
Steps
Shift the top deck assembly off your worksurface so that 2 corners are free hanging in space.
Position an H assembly underneath the corners, aligning the pre-attached t-nuts to the external rail slots. This requires you to adjust the t-nuts so they are perfectly vertical.
Once in place, tighten down the bolts
Repeat on the other side.
