How would you construct the base? Dados? is the top a torsion box? I want something cheap to make but sturdy. Is the shopnotes plan in the magazine better than the one on their site? Their plans on their site were very poor in relation to joinery and assembly. Anyone ever built something like this? thanks Anyone know how you would make an assembly/outfeed table like that one?

I have a small space as well, which I share with my car =o). I have been looking for a nine workbench/ assembly table that I can move around (as space is at a premium), and I fell in love with yours. I heard on the video where that you had got the planes for the table from somewhere, but I couldn’t catch where. I was wondering if you could tell me where you got the planes, so I can steal your the table for my little shop =o) thanks a ton. Hey Gary, just wanted to say that I love your shop.

I'm up in the New Tampa area, Hunter's Green to be exact. I've somewhat solved my AC problem by purchasing a 12000 BTU rolling AC unit for Sam's Club. It's pretty decent... I did have to put a 4 inch vent hole through the concrete wall but just stuck a dryer vent on it and it's good to go. If you're interested in checking it out just shoot me an email to josh@boddiford.com. Hope to hear from ya soon. Hey Gary,

Love the efficient use of space! As for A/C, I would suggest a portable stand alone unit. They can be vented out one of the windows and usually come with a piece that can be fit in the window that the hose attaches to. I had one and it worked OK in a 2 car garage but it would do very well in a single car garage space. It would be the fastest way to get A/C in your shop! Nice tour Gary!

There is no safety, and the trigger is very sensitive...so you've just got to keep an eye on where it is!

I'm definitely going to build out more storage over that area. My original plan was to do a whole "hutch" type wall on that entire wall, but the more I thought about it...that is likely where I'll end up dropping the AC unit...and because of my "screw up" that became that storage unit, that shifted me from the original plan of building one whole piece....now it'll be somewhat modular. Its unbelievable what a huge difference getting all of my nail guns and drills, etc has made!!
