In this woodworking video I'm going to be making a table saw folding outfeed table for my DeWalt DWE7491RS table saw. I have a tiny woodshop that is a 1 car garage and I have limited shop space. So, when I decided I needed an outfeed table, it couldn't take up any more room in my shop. My only option was a folding table saw outfeed table. This is a space saving solution that will keep your garage organized while improving the workflow in your shop. This was an easy woodworking project that drastically improved productivity. This is the perfect table saw outfeed table for a small shop.
I'll walk you though taking the plan, taking measurements, building the frame, attaching the hinges and attaching the outfeed table top. Then I'll test it and show you how it works.

I have made an update to this table since this video. I noticed that when trying to make bevel cuts on the table saw that the dust port would hit the frame. I would suggest moving the saw from 0-full bevel to make sure your frame is wide enough.

@jeffgimby6924 2 жыл бұрын

I’m in the middle of making the what I call the “Travis Out feed table” so what your saying is to make sure the frame that attaches to the stand is wide enough for the dust port ?

@jeffgimby6924 2 жыл бұрын

You are a great teacher !

@HowIDoThingsDIY 2 жыл бұрын

Ya. Set the saw to a max degree bevel cut and build around where the dust port sticks out. I missed this the first time. I made a quick fix for now but I plan to rebuild the frame and make some plans for my website.

You probably could. Would have to take the router out before folding up. Yes, it's stable. If I stood on it the entire table saw would probably flip over before the outfeed table breaks. Haha.

I made this today from your idea. Happily, I noticed the bevel issue before mounting the frame, so that sort of took care of itself. One thought for you... you might want to route out grooves in the outfeed to accommodate runoff by a miter gage or large sled. Let's start looking at an infeed for this table now!! Ha! Great vids. Thanks very much!

@HowIDoThingsDIY 2 жыл бұрын

Awesome! I commented and also made plans on my website of the 3rd iteration of this table to fix the bevel issue. Im still trying to decide if I want to cut in grooves. I find every time I use something that uses the miter slots, I don't need the outfeed table so I just told it down.

@unixgeek13 2 жыл бұрын

Just ordered those hinges, and planning to add that table saw to my mobile work trailer later this week as an addition to my current cordless dewalt table saw for job site use.

I would use plywood. MDF chips in the corners and doesn't have the same support strength. You can cut miter slots if you want. I just fold my table down when I use my sled. I was concerned miter slots would weaken the table. However, I've seen others add that to my design. Thanks!

Where did you get the dust port adapter for your saw ? Huge fan of your channel Travis, I think I was like the first 10 of your subs. Thanks jeff

@HowIDoThingsDIY 2 жыл бұрын

Jeff, thanks so much for supporting the channel right from the start. That's awesome! I think this is the adapter I use on the saw. Double check before ordering. I bought it on Amazon but you could also order throu DeWalt. It tapers, not straight like it shows in the photo. www.dewalt.com/products/accessories/tool-accessories/dust-management-accessories/tapered-large-diameter-adapter-for-dewalt-dust-extractors/dwv9140

Ya... they don't make one. I found one for a different Makita model and then made modifications to the saw to make it work. It actually worked surprisingly well and looks like it was meant to be there. I'll see if I can find what I ordered.

Your handle on the stand is installed backwards. The handle should point up and the two pipe ends should curve up not down. The little rubber pad should be on the other side of the pipe where they can sit in contact with the ground. This all effects the length of the outfeed table unfortunately for those of us who have this installed correctly.
