I've come to the conclusion that there isn't a single 'best' solution to this.

I have cast iron surface plate tables, fabricated mild steel tables etc. I keep thinking about a big table with t-slots or holes over the surface for clamps etc.

They all get used for different things.

I would go with mild steel if I only had space for 1 table. Stainless will cost the earth for limited benefit (especially if you're not a stainless-only workshop). The surface will eventually get lots of mild steel dust / chippings etc in it which could still contaminate your stainless projects. Better to rely on pickling paste / mechanical cleaning after manufacture if required IMHO. Also, if you do lots of mild steel work on your stainless table, it will itself become contaminated & start rusting...

Copper / brass etc isn't good. Soft as crap, so it'll be dented / not flat in no time. Its not like a steel table doesn't conduct enough electricity to work as a welding table!

Mild steel means you can buy a decent thickness at reasonable cost. Weight is an important factor. Rust is no prob with a very small amount of oil on a rag wiped over the surface every now and then. Paint the rest up to the top surface, then leave that plain steel. Its fine, even in a dripping workshop like mine.

Cheers, Al.
