Saw stools (cutting table)

[VW mick]

Made this to cut up my sheet material. Had some MDF delivered to make my sys ports. Ended up getting side tracked making saw stools so I could break the sheets down. That was 4 Sundays ago lol. Now I can actually start

Oh no promised the wife I would make a front door first  [scratch chin]

I like it. What is the metal section made out of, or is that a special part that you bought?

Very nice. I assume you fabricated the aluminum expander hardware.

 

[VW mick]

Yes mate I did. It was quite a lot of messing around with nuts and bolts

Interesting...is that aluminum square tubing with a wood core?
Is that a commercial product or did you make that also?

It's just some 25x25mm box section I ripped some beech to the internal dimensions and hammered it in then trimmed it to length and shaped it

I like it...very clever. Almost the strength of solid aluminum but with the machining ease of wood.

These are very cool!! Have you any drawings of them? I'd love to make a set myself

 

[VW mick]

To be honest I sort of made them up as I went along. I could get some films together next week

I do know they are a little taller than most as I'm quite tall

[VW mick]
