Some progress. Have removed some of the wood to see. Nice clean finish, no air bubbles (as expected with the plastisizer). Struggling to get the wood out, even with a mold release agent, its too tight to come out.
I need some advice on sizing some metal. I want to build a frame below the concrete to hold the mass and allow some castor wheels to be mounted. Estimated weight will be 2000kg when done. Can anyone suggest what size mild steel tube I can use?
Thanks

You could always build the frame out of UHPC as well. Just a thought
What happened to that rod in the first photo?

Just need to drill some holes into the bearing holder, quick test fit. Have bought some reference surfaces (surface plate for the table) and also a fairly large box (engineering type, flat within 5 thou) that Ill use to cast the DWH against. I was going to try something cheaper but its risky and this will be better.
