This is a great space saver for a small shop & easy to clean under in a large shop. I got my training in wood working in a 50 X 80 = 4000 square feet shop, that I will not build for myself, but loved the space. We had a kitchen cabinet full set finished & put aside to start a new project, while waiting for a deliver date.

April. I used your design and video to build this ofolding outfield table for my PowerMatic contractor saw. I added adjustable length feature to the folding legs for those days when the shop floor is not quite level. Was tough to get the stationary section installed and at the proper height, but this adds a great measure of safety while saving shop floor space when not needed. Thank you for sharing your design on KZbin.

Thank you, April! I have been watching your channel for several months and enjoyed every episode. You have no idea how incredibly refreshing it is to see a young person simply tackle every do-it-yourself task and be unafraid to make mistakes, which is the heart of human learning. Also your sharing attitude and correcting errors makes me smile every time since I have made many errors myself while making things. If I could have one more granddaughter ( I already have two.), I wish she could be you. I always told both my daughters and my son that they could do anything they put their mind to and they are pretty much can and do. I bet your family raised you that way as well. Thanks for all the videos, ideas and enjoyment. Keep up the great work! ...Another Texan

So I just built one of these. Thank you for the plans. I couldn't find the distance the 1/2" cleat hole needs to be in order for the table to close/fold. I'm sure it's someplace... but the center of the cleat hole needs to be 3/4" down from the top, and 1.1875" in from the cleat edge. (that's 3/16" for the woodworking folks.

About to build this. Thanks for the info.... what size lag bolts/screws did you use? April wasn’t specific in the plans, which just called for 1/2”, but they don’t look like 1/2” in the video. Also length, I’m guessing is 2 1/2 or 3 “ for attaching the cleat to the table saw, but I’m not sure what is needed for attaching the outfeed table to the cleat?

Great job, again, April. If I might make one suggestion. I understand you went with pine and similar materials because they were cost effective. My experience with functional shop fixtures such as this has shown that they get used a lot, take a lot of hard wear and when I went with softer woods such as pine or fir, they did not hold up well over time. I suggest using harder woods, such as maple, for the trim pieces and mechanical pieces (such as the pivot). Your design and execution are excellent. I'm sure this fixture will give you many years of use.

That's a neat solution to mounting that to the angle bracket. One of the things I like about my Incra system (Although there's admittedly a lot I don't like about it) is the 8020 extrusion they use for the rails. The t-slots make it dirt simple to mount anything to the saw.

Hi April, I was looking to build an outfeed table for my Grizzly Table saw which is very similar to yours with a Shopfox fence. The one issue I ran into was that the Grizzly has a piece coming out the back of the saw which extends both above and below the fence supporting the guard. I wanted to have the ability to use the guard when I am ripping because it has a splitter on it. Your method of sandwiching 4 pieces of pine together to make the beam that attached to the fence worked out great because I could just cut each layer where I needed to to fit over the guard support. I was forced to use 2 additional pieces because I wanted a solid board at the bottom. This also forced me to have a larger gap between the fixed piece and the larger table so it would swing down properly without hitting the beam. Just looked at your inserts with the T-Track and they look great! I will probably tackle that next, but not sure I have the guts to route up to the Steel, so I will probably take it off to do it. :) One last thing, I love your ability to break everything down and I have subscribed and can't wait to see what other project you have on your channel!
