Thanks.
I made my table the same way !!
I used a 5 foot by 5 foot piece of .125 aluminum. One end is 4 inches deep, and the other 3 inches. I did this so that it would drain completely. It works absolutely perfect !! It fills in 1.5 minutes, and drains in 45 seconds.
I keep the water level 1/4 below the top of the slats, and I like the results. Some will say to keep the water further away from your metal, but then you will have way more crap in the air, which is the reason you want a water table in the first place.
BTW, where in Canada are you?
