Popular Post Valleyslim Posted October 26, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Finally moved to my new house and setting up my shop. The garage walls are bare so no storage for any of my tools. I get the 3rd bay of the 3 car garage for my shop. So first thing i built was a outfeed/assembly table for my new sawstop. Almost done with the table, just need to add shelves for the assortment bins and another shelf for the open part. The table is the same on both sides. I've already made the custom drawer fronts, all they need is a clear coat of epoxy and i need to cut out the spaces for my 3d printed handles to go in. I made 2 drawers, my 5yr old made 1, and my wife made the 4th. Top needs 1 more coat of paint and will paint entire bench grey excluding the top. Will keep posted on progress. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Beasley Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 LOL, looks like an ad for Sawstop! You have a nice workspace there, especially when you can roll the door up on a nice day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Valleyslim Posted November 8, 2020 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted November 8, 2020 So testing out my 3d printed jig and 3d printed drawer handles and it was a success. The designer of the 3d printed parts designed it for a makita router so I had to drill holes to accommodate my bosch router. Sawstop table is on hold for now as my wife is making me build the bed I promised her a year ago. But will incorporate these handles in the bed as well 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardA Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 Are my eyes fooling me? That router base sure doesn't look flat at all. Could it be the camera angle? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could it be the camera angle? I thought that, too. But it looks like the base has a straight edge facing the camera, and one opposite, so it isn't full round. That plus the slightly visible print lines create an illusion of warp. I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could it be the camera angle? Its probably my camera skills, I did a light hand sanding on the holes i drilled for my router because there were little burrs. I'll check flatness when I get home. I printed it using PLA. ABS would be better for durability. Time will tell though if it warps after use. The test cut was perfect though. I printed a back up plate just in case if I need.

Its oval but yeah looking at the "wings" they look like they are bent down a bit but their not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valleyslim Posted November 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 Just checked and its not perfectly flat. Then I checked my spare and its the same on the right. Slight gap on the very right. So that means my printer bed isn't perfectly level to the print head 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
