Longest wood screws over ever seen! 😮

It's amazing how many youtube videos don't start by clearly explaining the problem they solve. This is a great example of how to do that. Very nicely done. Thank you!

You’re so good with the jigsaw I think you could have just used regular wood glue. Wish I was half as good with the jigsaw.

Yes, i could have used regular wood glue. Over here in Germany, the PU adhesive costs the same as PVA glue... But it is waterproof and foams up a bit, which is good, to fill any errors made by the jigsaw operator. xD Having a high quality jigsaw and good qualaty blades helps a lot thogh. ;) Greets from Germany.

Good morning. Nice idea, is it possible to get specific sizes of parts for building a table?😀

I dont have Plans for the stuff i build... Usually i make things "on the fly", as i go along, so that everything fit my needs in the end.. I dont use CAD programs either.. What i can recommend, is to do it the old fashion way like you have seen in the video... Make a scale model of the thing with cardboard an hot glue and once it works and has the right proportions, than go for the real thing.... My model in this case is 1 : 10.

How heavy is the table to lift up? I'm thinking if light enough then a series of hooks along the upper rails could have a few tools hanging off them if doing regular hammer/chisel, or hand metalwork.

It is a bit overkill, to build the thing with 4 cm thick wood...20 mm would be by far strong enough... but i have the material lying around. My girlfriend can lift the tabletop and fold it up.... so i think it is no problem for a grown man. The table is of course upgradeable.... depending on the kind of work, you are doing.. Time will tell, how it works out in "real life" for me here on the property and if there are changes necessary... Greets from Germany..

Hi Lari, Amazing workbench, very well presented and explained! I recently retired and am in need of a bench like this for my small shop, I have lots of 2x6 Fir that would be overkill but it needs to get used. Would you happen to have drawings and dimension that you can share? Thanks again for making and sharing this video. Wayne

Hi, Wayne.. Ufff.. 2 x 6 sounds way to heavy for a mobile workbench. Do you have the equipment, to cut them in half, to get roughly 2 x 3 ? I dont have drawings of the thing. "just" the scale model. Because making such a Model with cardboard and hot glue takes about the same time, as drawing it. But it gives you much better "haptic feeling" for the dimensions and the funktionality..... Plus... it is way cooler, to spend time in the workshop than on a computer. ;) And it is a kind of a " mind challenge"... The only importent thing is, to get the pivot points right for the parallelogram mechanism. So that nothing interferes with eachother, when you fold the tabletop up. In my case, the 16 x 4 cm is also a bit on the heavy side...but my girlfriend can lift it, so it is no problem for a grown man. ;) Greets from Germany

How did you decide where to put the pivot point?

@LariFariYoutube Жыл бұрын

I made the cardboard model 1:10 by trial and error and once i was happy with the funktion, i made the real thing..

Do you have plans for this

Oh, sorry my friend.. I made this cardboard scale model and built the table on the fly with no additional plans. I will take measurments and will upload some drawings to my pinterest profile very soon.
