Band Saw Sled and Table Extension

great job looks like it’ll be helpful for a long time

-- It don't have to be straight,it's just a suggestion!!!

Looks like a really handy addition. Well built.

-- Remember, measure twice, cut once

That is a nice table you made. It looks like it really will hold up well and do a great job for you too.

What kind of ebony is that and where did you get it?
I don’t think I’ve seen a piece that black that big.

BTW, very nice milling setup.

Nice design and well made sled/table. The canes on your site are beautiful.

Thank you for the comments, I appriecate them. Shipwright, the ebony is Gabon Ebony and came from Eden Saw in Port Townsend, WA.

Scott;

You have a great design. Hope you don’t mind I copy it for a similar project I have coming up. Hope you can share more pictures of your sled.

Thanks for sharing.

-- Measure twice, cut once, then rout a whole bunch

A good looking setup for resawing ! Like Paul, I was surprised to see an ebony plank that big !

Here are a couple pictures of the sled ends. The sled it self is made from two sheet on 3/4” plywood laminated together 72” long by 12” wide, I used two because after the dados for the t slot (from Kreg) that didnt leave much wood left to support 79 pounds of wood on it, One piece of one inch plywood would have worked but I didnt have that to use. What holds the wood in place is a 5/16” all thread sharpened on one end a couple nuts jamed toegther on the other end to drive it into the wood with and used some t nuts and mounted them in the board to create the threads.
