I got the frame from oldest son's house and carried it to youngest son's house. Got the 9" pieces of angle iron welded on to make it wider. Now it's 54" across the front instead of 36". Lay the expanded on to see where a support needs to be welded on.
Watching a dealer's auction. Might get some items in bulk.

Oldest son wants to go with a new piece of expanded metal instead of piecing it together with different size spans. I checked prices at all the metal suppliers in Memphis. Only 2 places have it. Superstore is 42 miles away and wants $189 for ridged and $220 for smooth. Metal Supply Warehouse is in the heart of Memphis, 28 mile round trip, $95 for either. I got a new 4X8 sheet of 3/4" 9 ga.
At the auction I got Jiachuan 2000 and 3000 series spinning reels for $4.50. There's a $10 table limit so I had to buy 3 for $13.50.

Got the frame back to my house. Measured where center supports would need to be. Cut metal and sanded ends. Ready to go back to Youngest son's to weld.
