Folding workbench
What do you think? I have no plans on buying this but I don't think it
would be very stable. http://www.garrettwade.com/jump.jsp?...&itemID=105754 I did build the knock-down workstation from the latest issue of ShopNotes and it is surprisingly stable. Works a lot better for my miter saw than the outfeed table of my TS. http://www.shopnotes.com/main/sn87-toc.html |

The trick is to use monstrously stable trunnions for the main hinges, not just pressed steel hinges or a piece of studding. Car suspension parts are about right. You can make lovely hinges from cut-down pistons with the gudgeon pin and rod acting as the swivel. |
