bgreenb Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 Thanks! Sorry I didn't see it. Was just looking for something to occupy some of my time in the cubicle this afternoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewoodwhisperer Posted May 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 That should do the trick. Don't forget to burn a few brain cells listening to the latest Wood Talk too! http://www.thewoodwhisperer.com/woodtalk/wood-talk-133-pork-roll-on-the-bandsaw/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgreenb Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 Haha - for some reason our work computers block wood talk but not the rest of the wood whisperer site. So I save wood talk for my train ride home on my iphone! My train ride is an hour so it's perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryO Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 After going through the Working Wood series with Paul Sellers and building the projects associated with the video's, I never thought I would be able to do some of the things he demonstrated and taught in the lessons. One of the projects was a stool and the legs were round. Shaping the legs by hand and have them turn out so nice was really enjoyable. So it's not only possible to do the tilt table without a lathe, but also a lot of fun to take square stock and make a tapered leg look good, and function as intended. It definitely takes longer, but if you're not on a tight time table don't worry about not having a lathe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmaichel Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 I have a friend who would like me to build a tilt top table for his daughter to use as a music stand. How would I get the top to hold at around a 30 degree angle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 In the tilt mechanism i would apply a radiused piece with a series of holes that you could insert a pin to the fixed part. That way you have adjustment for whatever is most comfortable to the person using the stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beechwood Chip Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 You might want to add some height adjustment to the music stand: sitting vs standing, different height musicians, etc. Is the daughter done growing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
