Please tell me thats without deducting the leads impedance?
Man, you would be fried before that tripped anything.
A lot of my last twenty years of work was checking safety in commercial and catering kitchens. Stainless steel tables as far as the eye could see.
I failed anything that went above 0.2 OHMS above lead measurements.
I bet the trunnions are greased?
Run a separate 4 mm earth wire from the steel table to the nearest mains loop earth, or the next exposed steel machine (which should also be 0.2 ohms or less).
trust a risk assessor to ignore his own workshop

I did not get to Axminster today as I had issues getting the lid to close, then I remembered I cut the slots for the hinges before I added the veneer. I popped the hinges off and inserted a piece of veneer under each one and fixed the issue.
Here is the finished box.

That’s not incorrect Bob, but it isn’t true for every situation either. Although it sounds counterintuitive some timbers that are prone to tearing out a deeper cut can actually help prevent the fibres being torn out, by having a deeper cut the finished cut surface is supported by the timber behind it and doesn’t get torn out, whereas a very thin cut has no support behind the cut surface and can be prone to tearing out.
