trying to build cheap machines

Hi Lumberjocks.
For about 2 months i've been sharing a workshop with Andrius Sta, who i met thanks to lumberjocks!
We are still trying to arrange the shop, and we use eachothers tools. Which is great to share eachothers knowledge.

I bought a cheap, about 80 dollar mini tablesaw a while ago, and thought about demolishing it and putting it under a better table.
Had some boards left and decided to use them as table. I'm still thinking about laying a aluminum sheet on top, it's still in progress.

before;
Composite material Rectangle Electric blue Event Glass


after;
Wood Gas Auto part Machine Metal


only the saw under table
Table Computer desk Wood Cabinetry Writing desk


Table Wood Interior design Desk Shelf


Wood Hardwood Ceiling Flooring Metal


Wood Floor Flooring Hardwood Gas


Wood Hardwood Gas Wood stain Building material


Toilet paper Toilet roll holder Paper towel holder Plumbing fixture Toilet


Wood Hardwood Wood stain Flooring Plank


I used an old table clamp upside down as a lift, which works really nice. the saw rests on the moving clamp part.
to tighten and fixate the saw, there is one bolt that i extended to the side of the table.

Also made this mdf mitersaw table with extended fence

Miter saw Saw Mitre saws Wood Tool


Wood Saw Tool Gas Machine tool


Saw Wood Workbench Machine tool Engineering


It was alot of work getting it all square, and i used some sandpaper underneath parts here and there to level everything :)

Thanks for reading!

That table saw is out of control! Is that a vise you parted out for the build? This is very impressive to me.

Isnt that one of those Zyliss vises? Came with a couple style clamps that's supposed to clamp onto just about anything. I bought one at a county fair back in the mid-70's. Used the heck out of it at first, but it's been packed away in the (original) box for about 30 years.
Always hated to get rid of it because I paid a small fortune for it back then.

Clamp rack

I started building a clamp storage cabinet.
For the Bessey's this seems to work really well.
Andrius noticed that they might stay put better facing down the other way.
It's just a small angle of about 10 degrees.
Maybe a good tip for anyone with these type of Bessey clamps?

That looks like it would work fine and does look neat. However, I prefer them hanging not that I particularly no why I do.

finished clamp rack

I recently finished our clamp rack.
Held together with alot of screws and glue.
I cut out the upper shelf notches with the tablesaw, halfway trough the
board and screwed strips underneath as reinforcement.
I hope it might be usefull to somebody.
