That's the one I got. The story I told was that as soon as I put the welder
on the table it collapsed. The squares in the design rapidly became rhombi.
Fortunately, I was still close enough to the collapsing table to catch it
before it hit the floor.

Pile of crap! It is now reinforced with crass bars making the rhombi into
double and quadruple triangles. It'll get me by this way.

Honestly, Mike, I don't know how Harbor Freight could in any conscience sell
the damn thing.
