Heavy Duty Flip-Top Workbench

- I needed to free up some bench space so I designed and made a heavy duty flip-top workbench for my drop saw and thicknesser planer.

I used the free online version of sketchup to design this
Very nice job, it looks solid as.
A guard on the angle grinder is ALWAYS a good idea. Those things make a mess of the fingers if the blade lets go.
Brilliant. Simple and damn effective.
Could i suggest using a piece of pipe in the stand and table where the locking bolt goes in, to ensure it doesn't elongate the holes over time. I would also use a locking bolt on each side to balance the stresses on the frame which will reduce the possibility of frame twisting over time.
I think this is the cleanest looking and strongest design but I would've installed power plus vertically adjustable fold down wings. I also would countersink for all the screws then plug sand flush for a cleaner look and don't forget to soften all the sharp edges.
Right on! Excellent work. I had the same concern about the weight distribution.
Nice work, no way to improve it, just great.
This is terrific! I've been looking for an 'easy' flip table and I know I can handle this as a beginner. Thank you so much!!
As usual, great work Mark!
It’s great to see you posting your builds.
I love the space saving design too @Mark Susak
Well done!
Thank you Paul
Good one Mark!
I built one, but with posts for legs, which are wobbling now. I plan to build a new one, with plywood sides for a more sturdy build. Also, I will be using bearings to hold the pole of the flip board to the frame.
I wonder if the bearings are over engineering though? I may ask you for an update on your flip bench after six or twelves months.
Thanks.
I was thinking of bearings however I can’t see myself needing them. But who knows haha
@@MarkSusak I set myself a reminder for every six months to check up in if bearings would have been better?
I will check up on this another six months from now for one last time, to see how they have held up without bearings, if no bearings have been added 😉🇦🇺👍
@@IsaKocoglu works great! Haven’t had any issues since I’ve made it. Bearings would be fun. But as it only gets flipped 1-4 times each project. No wear at all
@@MarkSusak that is great news! If it is ok with you, I will request a final update in another six months?
@@MarkSusak one year on, how is it holding up Buddy?
Great design Mark, as usual you bring practical useful projects.
Thank you Greg
You the man bro!!!🔥🔥🔥
I LIKE IT.
Very good video thanks bud
Awesome build! Hey, how much did the timber for this project set you back? Most of these videos are American...
Thanks Tom. I used hardwood plywood so this project set me back about 300.. if I used regular plywood which would have been sufficient it would have been half
U should he able to adjust the depth at which the nail gun shoots the nail and fix that problem
Hi! Nice bench! But i have a question. Have you changed the thicknesser because this jwp-jet is weak or have you just changed?
Long time no see. Good to see you again.
Happy to be back and thank you
Bloody brilliant mate 👍🏽
Did you turn the dial on the nail gun up to full power with the longer nails?
Thanks Bill. Yep I did! 1 size down works perfectly though
@@MarkSusak
Well that's a pain in the arse then, you'd expect them to work if they fit... Those brads are far from cheap.
Do you have the measurements in inches.
I didn't know butter cuts 😜. Cool build though.
Nicely done. What happened to your Jet thicknesser?
Good eye and thanks!
the jet ended up snapping the main shaft when cutting through a whole lot of reclaimed hardwood. Mostly my fault because the blades when dull and I thought I could finish up and get them sharpened the next day. Would have cost more than a new one to fix. This one is from my grandfather. the blower function with the breathable bag is good but I still get quite a few chips shooting out the front.
Thanks for watching!!

not strong enough
