Hi guys, the floor in my workshop is uneaten slightly in several places, was wondering if there was heavy duty height adjusting fixings that I could install at various tables to get them to sit level?
 
You can buy adjustable "elephants feet" from standard part suppliers up to at least M12< or make your own from beefy bolts with welded on feet in any size you like.
 
Good advice above. When I took over my workshop there was a gorilla bucket filled with the following in the corner

They probably are a bit tall for a workbench but as I also have an uneven floor I have them underneath the table saw and jointer infeed and outfeed tables and and in a few other spots too.

That's what I had at a rental- obviously couldn't attach to the walls, so had free standing workbench, but the floor was rather unlevel to say the least (about 6cm difference along a 3m bench!) and the workbench I bought (secondhand) had 3x3 legs, all level...
I just drilled and tapped into the bottom of the leg, fitted as large a washer as I could and a 'locknut' and put some rubber cap feet over the head of the bolt...
Wind the bolt down until the table is level, tighten the locknut and bingo- level and stable...
Since I built the shed, I am building the workbenchs level to begin with lol (currently still a stack of lumber on the floor.... still doing the wiring atm lol)
