OK.. it is still in design stage but fully functional.... My "Batcave" turntable!!!

100" end to end, 38" wide, weight approx 50lbs
2x2x 3/16" angle steel, homedepot "carosel bearing ($4.99)
4ea. 1.5"swivel wheels for side stability
it has treated 3/4" plywood for the deck... will soon be diamond plate (wood is a cheap alternative for early mistakes)

When complete it will be herculined.

total cost (without diamond plate) so far is $89.00 and 2 man hours (not including the new welder my wife bought me since my old crapped out

)

That's gonna be cool. I guess you could use it to save some room in the garage?

Glad to see you are still around, haven't seen you in while.

I have been in and out.... pretty busy at work....
it doesn't really save any room per say... but now I don't have to do a 12 point turn to get out of the garage.... pull in.... spin it around... pull out. I will have a video soon... it will spin with using 1 hand! Works great. Its also light enough that I can lift it up and lean it againt the wall if I need the floor space. Put my buddies HD Road King fully bagged out on it and it still worked perfectly.
