I'd cut out the whole 'top' section, all 5 tubes, and re-weld in only 2 tubes going straight accross, one at each outter edge surrounding the perimeter of the table, no joints in the middle.
I don't understand why it needed the extra tube crossing the other way in the middle. One tube along each side would have been perfect. To support the top in the middle, a single tube going straight accross the middle parallel to the other 2, with no extra tubes joining it, would support the middle fine with no chance for warping anything.Last edited by Desertrider33; 12-08-2009 at 06:54 PM.

how far out is the top?
can the low spots be shimmed
and/or the high part be ground down?

stump
i got an oak stump under my table be it a small one but drag a dirty torch over it when its burning and it cleans it real nice, if that tube table was mine, i would put a spacer in the middle, lay some channel on it and push it down with some c clamps, mayby a hammer to shock it, mild steel dosent take much to move,
