Re: Ultimate Workbench by Ron Paulk

I don't think the plans are open source or public domain; therefore not allowed to share/post/etc. IIRC, for those who really must have plans, the plans are priced quite low ($10) and reasonable given the time/effort to produce them.

Built this workbench sometime (~2 yrs) ago. Didn't use plans. It's a simple torsion box. One can make it to whatever design and dimensions one wants or needs. Actually, am building a second one now, slightly different. Below are pics of the first one.

Parts:

Used dowels for alignment during gluing:

Before finishing the interior and gluing the top. Not shown here are supports for a middle rod which is positioned slightly off-center (designed for dimensions of particular tools, e.g., Bosch 4100 table saw, etc.), screwed in after the interior was finished but before gluing the top.

Re: Ultimate Workbench by Ron Paulk

I took some photo last night of my table saw with its removable table top con insert made of 1/2" HDF material. The new table top measures 24" x 36"..medyo malaki na rin..enough na rin para sa working area ko.

1st photo: eto yung pag nakabaligtad ang table top. Yung mga nakadikit na small pieces ay papasok dun sa mga butas ng original na table top. Two rows yung nasa kabilang side para pwede syang i-move para naman sa 45 degree slot.

2nd photo: Normal position nya para sa 90 degree cutting.

3rd photo: Moved to the left para naman sa 45 degree cutting, although di ko pa nagagamit kaya di pa nakaangat ang blade.

Plano ko palitan ng marine plywood with edge band pag may sumobra sa ginagawa kong project ngayon.

nick sobra ko lang din kasi yang 1/2 HDF na yan...and alam natin sa katagalan mag aabsorb ng moisture yan at mamamaga. Plano ko gawan ng talagang pangmatagalan na with long rip fence at with zero clearance insert. Pag naka order nako ng insert thats the time gagawa na ko.

"hindi talaga alam kung bakit mey butas na square ang surface ng Chin table saw "

I guess to increase table rigidity and lose some weight.

this thread is enjoyable.
