Publisher Description: This stand really delivers. If you're looking for a versatile, sturdy shop helper, then this support stand will fit the bill. You can start it using any scrap hardwood for the parts, and the design can evolve with your skills by adding auxiliary tops for versatility. Adjustable feet accommodate uneven floors, teaming up with a broad base and a strong sliding column to keep the stand from budging under heavy work. Woodworker Michael Fortune built this same stand many years ago and here he walks you through how to build one for your shop. Skill Level: DIMENSIONS: WHAT'S INCLUDED: |
