Finished my out-feed assembly table - Terry W - 07-02-2020

[attachment=28026]
Just finished an out-feed, assembly table for my SawStop. It's 3ft x 5ft with 8 drawers and is on leveling casters so it can be moved when needed. The top is a torsion box made with 1/2" MDF and trimmed with red Oak. It over hangs about 3 inches on three sides to allow for clamping. A couple of odd mods had to be made. I added a 2x2 inch extension strip (black) to allow a more continuous transition from the top of the saw. Also, I had to cut a notch at the bottom of the saw side of the table to allow clearance for the dust port & hose that runs under the table.

It may not be the best design out there, but it replaces an old hollow core door that sat on two old kitchen cabinet bases. I know I'm going to enjoy the upgrade.

Looks great!

The best design is the design that works for you in your shop.

When I moved into my current shop 6 years ago, I only had "slap-dash" outfeed and assembly tables.  Fortunately, I had plenty of square footage available, so I ended up building a 4 foot square outfeed/assembly table/workbench.  Like yours, it abuts my tablesaw, although I didn't make it mobile.  That work surface transformed my shop.  I use it every day.

Enjoy!

That looks very nice, Terry. You're going to enjoy the storage space.

Nicely done, is there anything connecting it to the saw?

Great job Terry. An outfeed that add function and storage. What a welcome upgrade for you. Nice mod in adding the strip to fill the gap. My table also has an offset and shape to accommodate this. I currently run my table below the miter slots but, after a few years of use I think I will be adjusting it up and adding slots.

Looks great to me.  Lots of storage is a must.

No, nothing connecting it to the saw. It's just as close as I can get it but about 1/8" lower than the height of the saw's table.
