A week or so back I posted pictures of the workbench/assembly table

debating whether to add 2 attachment bolts to hold the two units

I elected to not drill the 32,548 holes in the top.... My Festool work
table has enough.Â* ;~)

The legs. With material storage on the wings that stick out.

I had wondered the purpose of the wings in the construction photos
earlier...

Forgot to address in my precious response.

The top wing, if you will notice, extends out a few inches further than
the lower wings.

It extends past the side of the work surface so that I can have a place
to put my track with parallel guides. It is normally an issue finding a
place to put it when working with multiple sheets of plywood.

See? The fishing works. ;-)

I like it. A lot! How do you deal with cutting the top of the bench?

Well preciousely I cut on top of a grid of 2x4's and they were not flat
like this. I used a sheet of foam insulation board between sheets to
take the blade hit.

Ron Paulk, just uses thin strips of scrap plywood under the cut and to
support the keeper and waste side. I'm going to try that.



I built my cutting bench on a solid-core door with a sheet of 3/4" MDF
just sitting on top, held in place by side rails 1/4" shy of the
surface. I'm not short on space so portability wasn't important. It's
on casters but it never moves more than a foot or two.


If room was no object..... ;~) Your method sounds great.
