I am considering a simple design that WoodSmith on TV showed. Simple, 2x4
and 2x6 construction for the bottom with MDF reinforcement panels to
stabilize the legs and a 4 layer MDF top.
But I am also considering the same design and using BB plywood for the
whole
thing, just laminate/build up to achieve 2x4 and 2x6 dimensions.
SYP is pretty hard considering it is clasified as a hsoft wood, harder
than
poplar for instance.


Oh, please. Just go get the http://fwd4.me/KBx and do the gloat,
damnit. We can handle it.


You really would like one of those?


No, only if it were given to me. But the Festool Three would.


Better not try to plane on it...
And did you see the feet and legs? Oh, the humanity...


Piece of cake. Just plug in the planer over there and...
/silly Normite response I carry a #4 with me in the truck and used
it to touch up the mess the circ saw (dull blade, no spare with me)
made on ripping the tubasix PT board. My client helped by holding the
board steady. He was amazed at how quickly it took the ripple off and
put a radius on the top of the cut edge. He played with the shavings
for awhile afterward. That was fun to watch.
