My work sees me moving about a lot and often have to set up a mobile bench for fabrication , I’ve found the best horses over the years have been the Dewalt leg stands , I’ve had various tops , I’ve got a top that works well after many versions , I’ve seen something similar on you tube , I think the guys might be from Chicago or San Francisco ??

did you make the table top?

Sweet work table. What are you using the short Festool rail for? The TS or maybe the Sword saw?

locksmithmattMember since May 2014Sep 12, 2015 1:31 AM CT

I made the top out of a bit of melamine faced 18mm mdf , set the holes as the festool MFT , then the other bits are for clamping , storage , track saw cutting and holding the midi hose

The short rail is a off cut off a long festool rail that I got on special , I cut it to 2400 so that it fits in the van with out getting damaged , I just use it with the Dewalt plunge saw

Looking good!!

Can you take a close up cordless saw on the rail? Not a bad idea:-)

locksmithmattMember since May 2014Sep 14, 2015 12:17 AM CT

I use it all the time, only down side is it won’t cut a 44mm door
