Folding Outfeed table for a cabinet saw

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I've developed some bad habits with my table saw that could cost me my fingers and they mostly revolve around not having an outfeed table.
My table saw sits against the garage door and feeds out the door into the driveway, and the driveway is sloped, this makes it hard to have any sort of outfeed table.
With this design however, I am able to keep my saw in the same position and know that the outfeed table will always be level with the saw bed whenever it is extended.

    You do have to spend some time setting the saw up... blade, fence, etc. But once done, the saw is great. Fairly compact which is Nice kzread.infoUgkxXh-4_3-ZT1fFWP91ZV7iVqzElr0lEb-a I did get an Incra Miter Gauge which takes some setup as well. The stock miter gauge can be adjusted in the miter slot with a little painter's tape... this tightens up the side to side play a lot.

    Somewhere in my life I picked up some aluminum piano hinge, no wimpy stuff either. Probably 2.5 inches wide total and it is 3/16 thick. I bolted a piece of wood to the rear of my saw and the side extension for my 52" Bimeyer fence, screwed the piano hinge to that then built an outfeed table similar to yours but used 1" square alum tube for the frame and particle board (coated with 3 coats of satin poly). I added two 1" steel square tube legs that fold to each corner, these have adjustable rubber feet so wherever I set my saw up in the garage I can account for the floor being uneven. I also made a side extension that allows me to cut wide material by bolting a piece of angle iron on the side of the table. One end of the extension sits on the angle and there are 3 tapped 1/4-20 holes in the angle to attach the extension to and a simple square support leg made out of 1 x 4 supports the outer end. It has a flat wood top with a 1/4-20 machine screw insert , I use a few wide wood shims under that leg to level it.

    Two tips. Add another coat of contact cement. First layer smoothes out tiny peaks and valleys. Or you can add varnish/shellac than one coat of contact cement. And second tip is to use one inch wide rollers. This prevents the pressure from spreading out over the width of the baking roller. For an outfeed table I'm sure a few bubbles will be OK. But using 1 inch rollers will eliminate any issues. And great build! Enjoyed the video

    I like this I have a small shop too. A regular out feed table would be in the way most of the time. You can score Formica like glass and snap it. They sell a specific blade for that, Also a hand trimming "plane". They also have a beveling router bit for that. I guess I have been around when Formica was used more often.

    I also have a small space. My first go at outfeed table was made purely of plywood. This takes up too much space making it awkward to access the machines at the back end of the garage. A folding outfeed table would give me the additional space to use the machines on the back wall. I feel like setting up your shop comes in several evolutions. Your basic setup to get you going. A second round where you make improvements on your initial design. And sometimes a final go to hone in your efforts. Thanks for this vid. Very well done.

    Well done also. I made up a similar one about six years ago with a few changes. I added a rail to the top on the table saw for the top to hook into and a rail for the bottom of the table saw to provide more support for the angled support. I added two cleats cleat to the underside of the top. One to hook into the table saw and the other for the leg to fit against. Lastly, I simply use a board(30cm wide) with mitred ends to sit against the top and the other to sit on top of the bottom table saw rail....the board adds great stability to the top. All parts simply hook into place when needed and lie flat anywhere when not needed.

    Very good, Sir. I was impressed. I just finished building an out feed table like the one that Colin Kanat at WoodworkWeb built. If I had seen your video I may have built one like you have demonstrated so well. The concept on both is pretty much the same whereas you built the folding support and I purchased my brackets as Colin did. With the price of boards it might have been a wash dollar wise. I have to say that yours is much better looking as you took great pains to make it so. I am going to check out your video on "How to build a cross cut sled at any budget!" because I have built 2 or 3 through the years that I did not care for. Again, very well done, Sir.

    For a large glue up like the table top I use a pin nailer to keep the 2 pieces straight nd then add enough concrete blocks to cover the top. No clamps needed nor do I have any screws in the top to get in the way eventually. None at all...Forstner bits do not need pilot holes.. Don't want "blow out", use a wooden table that you can drill into Either that or set the depth gauge so that the point of the bit will emerge and then turn the piece over and finish the hole. Your basic design and I will be using the ideas on my out feed table soon... I envy your drill press as my old Craftsman press does not have a crank on the table for adjustment. It is older than I am and I am 75 now...

    The local Home Depot (not sure what's where you are) has something called "Glasliner 4 ft. x 8 ft. White .090 FRP Wall Board" which is awesome stuff, it's amazing how many uses you may be able to find -- I've actually made sandwich board signs using it with stencils and plastic-enamel paint. It is stippled on one side, but the other side is quite smooth, and perfect for many _many_ purposes. It may be quite good to replace the Formica as a top for something like this. As I speak it's US$43. There is also a 1/16 panel of similar stuff for US$26. BTW, the term for making/adhering the formica to the underlayment is called *"burnishing".* There are specific tools made for the job, but a kitchen roller can certainly do the job. Not sure I'd want to use it for food after that, but it's something worth having anyway. Oh, and I see you're using Titebond III -- it's good for peeps to understand the difference between the two main forms -- TBII and TBIII -- they use different processes for curing, so you want to know which will work best for your environment. TBII is best for relatively dry environments. Whereas TBIII is best for relatively humid environments. E.g., if you live in Arizona, use TBII. If you live in Florida, Louisiana, or the Gulf zone of Texas, you want TBIII -- this is because TBII cures by *releasing* moisture, so high humidity can be an issue. TBIII, on the other hand, cures by *absorbing* moisture. So it's great in high-humidity areas. It's also notably more waterproof, but the downside of TBIII is that it also tends to foam as it dries, leading to some extra cleanup as the foam is exposed in some places. Your choice, but I'd feel a lot more comfortable with two legs just dropping down at each corner and sitting on the ground, with a lock-in-place... I don't see any benefit to the clunky angle- trick you did there. It feels needlessly "cute"... And it leaves the corners unsupported, so the whole thing is subject to torsion damage over time. YMMV. ;-)

    Very nice design and great execution! I like how you minimized the horizontal projection of the wood rail/hinge you bolted to rear fence rail. I’ve seen other designs that add what looks like 4-5” to the saw’s depth (which is not good if the saw shares space with a car). Externally, your saw looks very similar to the Grizzly G0899 and Shop Fox W1888. The fence rail setup is the same, as are the hand cranks, the fence, etc. Owners of those saws could use your design as-is.

    Hey Barrie That's a fair call and I might do a short or something in the future if I have issues. Because the table is double 18mm MDF, its pretty darn heavy and i haven't managed to bump it out yet, I'm actually more concerned that the bend in the leg will flop out and im thinking about putting a catch on it to ensure that doesn't happen

    A slight variation is to not even make the leg, simply use a board instead, cut top mitre angle to fit neatly under the outer edge of the extension and sit the other end down on the table saw lower lip. I have had mine like this for years and never once bumped it. My top simply hooks over the extra timber lip on the table top and I locate it by sliding two bolts between the two faces. Both table and support board store flat and take seconds to install. The extra bonus is that they are always aligned with the saw table top and are independent of having to adjust the leg as it is never in contact with the ground and its bumpy bits. P.S. Cut some holes in the board to reduce its wight without affecting its stiffness 16-18mm thickness is good.

    Brilliant only a couple of mistakes considering it's a one off build on the fly an excellent result 😊

    I made a similar support for my mobile miter saw table. I laminated two MDF panels with a water based glue. After laminating the Formica on one side, the panels warped. A more experienced maker told me I should have waited a week before laminating the Formica or laminated top and bottom to prevent differential drying. Wondering if you had any tips on timing or warping in your project? Great addition to the shop! I greatly enjoy your videos.

    Hey there I thankfully didn't have any issues with warping but I did notice on a separate project where I glued two pieces of MDF together that they didn't stick particularly well. I think the one reason this worked without warping or the glue coming undone is because I ended up screwing it together from the underside

    was remaking the leg sections anything like taking the next exit and then turning around to get back to the exit you should have taken? I think that's what it would have been like for me, great build, got really lucky twice with those screw locations, was bound to go wrong somewhere else

    Really should have 2 legs, and a better brace support on the bottom of the saw for the legs to rest in a pocket. Sometimes your going to cut something big and heavy youll want the extra support. Lets say your making cabnits a 3/4" plywood or mdf gets pretty heavy by yourself youll be asking the off table to support that weight. Last thing you need is the lone leg to give in. That could be worse then not having the off table in the first place. Always better to overbuild it.

    Great video. I just got a Harvey table saw that I'm going to build a outfeed table like yours. What is the width of pine boards you used for the mounting block.

    I got it from my local hardware store (bunnings) however I wouldnt recommend it, the rubber ring often leaves black marks on the wood. A similar product I have seen many other woodworkers use that is on my wishlist can be found at amazon - amzn.to/3ht0Fvh

    Superb solution, work and video. Loved it! One thing puzzles me. At 12:40 we see you remove the protective film but it still seems to be there at 22:22. Regards, Phil

    Thanks 😊 I just double checked and the film is gone at 22:22, what I think you are seeing is where I drew with pencil on it and removed the pencil with an eraser, it left those strange marks there, which have since disappeared with use.
