Presenting the MFSC or multi-function shop-cart, a cart designed to assist woodworkers during every stage of the furniture fabrication process.
I got this idea now over 3 years ago, simply because I needed something like this and it didn't exist, as every woodworker I occasionally need an additional work bench, or a lifting assembly table, drying racks, cart to move parts around, panel cart, table to glue etc... but only during specific moments and never simultaneously. I don't have the room or money for existing separate commercial solutions, so I designed this.
It was only this summer that I finally made a technical break through that allowed me to make this work, I have two of them and have been using them since August. I use them both every day, a video of the actual use will follow. There is also a video on my website in the link below of the mechanism that allows makes the lifting mechanism entirely automatic.
The work top is identical to an MFT, technically the possibilities are endless with this design, the flip side of the table could be a cutting table, router table etc...
As with my previous designs I sell plans on my website, it's mainly thanks to the support on this forum that I got where I am now and that I'm able to do such projects, this is by far my most elaborate one. It was incredibly complex to make this incredibly simple and reliable.
