Yeah Buddy! Right up there with Izzy Swan's dream-build a few months ago; this is simple perfection. Thank you. I accidentally glued 3/4 MDF to my old door slab, on the centerline on my concrete floor...where it pitches down each side. Now I have a 3/16 hump in my table, why didn't I throw a level on it?!

thank you mundl! The stings to help ensure that the boards are parallel and level. you can use your level but the strings help make sure it is accurate.

Thanks for posting this. Just make a new work surface for my old bench, but now I need to flatten it. What are the dimensions of your bench? Trying to get a gauge for how long this will take me. Thanks again!

@Wengelsworkshop 3 жыл бұрын

Probably in the 2'x5'ish. The set up takes the longest. The router time isn't that bad

On an unrelated note: do you have plans for your table-saw table? I have a DeWalt, and I like your approach to incorporating yours into a table. I'm guessing you dismounted the rack-and-pinion fence system, hence the DIY fence. I like the rack-and-pinion, but I'd like a continuous surface between my table saw and out-feed table more:-).

@Wengelsworkshop 4 жыл бұрын

Man the table saw has been an awesome upgrade and one of my most planned out projects however i dont have plans lol. i do however plan on making a video about it, but im so busy working multiple jobs right now it will probably be a couple months before i post it. i would be happy to answer any questions you have about it though.

Why not apply the epoxy first, then rout it?
