So, I spent a good amount of time attempting to make my own MFT style top using the popular Woodrave jig coupled with pegboard. While the result was pretty accurate, after completing the cut phase of a project I have come to find that it is out .5mm over 36" which is a little too inaccurate, and compounds when using the table w/parf dogs to square ply and to rout dados/rabbets. Not sure why, could be the pegboard was not as accurate as necessary. I am a beginner, so probably more likely I messed it up.
Regardless, I am considering the fastcap Paulk bench because I don't really want to spend any more time making a bench, and I am beginning to doubt my ability to create something dead accurate (or at least much closer than I got). I am wondering if anyone has any experience w/the Fastcap version of the Paulk worktop, particularly in regard to the grid of holes? Is it accurate enough to use w/Parf dogs to get near dead accurate cuts? I assume because they are CNC machined they are as accurate as one could expect, but I thought I would attempt to find out before I commit. I live in Seattle and can drive up there to pick one up, so the shipping cost is not an issue.
Thanks for the advice!
