I like how you are using the small space to the max! Everytime I think I have a limited space shop (2 car garage) I see videos like this and get inspired on ways to maximize my shop :)
Great idea. I can think of two modifications for it. 1. Put a roof over the planer so when it is fully down, the roof becomes the top of the workbench. You leave it in place and raise and lower it as needed. 2. This is a theory, but I think you can stabilize the top more easily if you add stops on top of the pipes. The board is unstable when raised because it is pivoting on a center point. But, as one corner goes down, the opposite corner is going up. So, stop the opposite corners from rising. By placing some kind of stopper at the top of the pipes with the lift table below them, when you raise the table, the four corners of the table hit the stoppers. Center pressure from the lift keeps the pressure on the four corners so they cannot pivot. Like I said, this is a theory, so if this is still not stable enough for production, it will stop the table at the exact same spot each time so you can plug in your support bolts more quickly.
Hi and thanks. Already made some modifications. Added tops at the end of the pipes so the lift will hit those stops and there is no need for he hold anymore. I have added some wooden guides underneath the board on which the planer sits and now when raising or lowering there is no pivoting in any direction 👍
@@BlessedLaymanNC I'm making a second cart for my jointer. So when I finish I'll try to post something. It will be on my Instagram not sure about UA-cam.
Good idea dropping the music. I don’t know why but most you tubers have really bad taste in music and they play it too loud in their videos. I do not go to a woodworking video to listen to horrible techno noise.
Very clever! While the setup time is fairly short having to install/uninstall four stop screws each time the planar is used is a bit tedious. If you wanted to do away with the four stop screws, you might consider securing a permanent stop at the top end of each of the pipes above the base plate, then run the lift up until the base plate presses against all four permanent stops. This method means all that is needed is to run the lift up or down and therefore the setup/breakdown time is, significantly(IMO), shorter. Maybe an upgrade video? :)
Love the video... Be careful of using other people's music. It can get you in trouble on this platform. Your intro music is from ViceGrip Garage. He's a nice feller but please give him credit as I believe he wrote that himself.
@@yuppiecruncher Thanks, as far as I remember I got the music from UA-cam free music catalogue. I also used Epidemic Sound in the past. So all legal and as it should be👍
I prefer watching videos like this as I can relate to the small space and equipment being used. The videos from America are good, but when they use a $1,000 mitre saw, then move onto an industrial table saw etc in a warehouse-size space, it looks very easy. Tomasz's videos are enjoyable as I guess the majority of us don't endless funds and space to work in. Think I might make one of these lifts, such a space saver
Thank you for your kind words. Yes there's more DIYers with limited budgets and space than fully professional workshops. I just want to show that you don't need all those super expensive tools to make something cool and good quality.
As someone in the USA that doesn't have a lot of space, I can relate. A lot of the videos made in the US are by people who have been woodworking professionally for years and have built up a business in the craft, thus they have expensive tools and plenty of space. If they live in Texas, they all have a lot of space, because everything in Texas is bigger, or so they say.
This is is just what I was looking for! Absolutely perfect and great alternative for flip top carts. As you were building it, I was thinking that pipe would be perfect for stabilizers but how do I do it. Most excellent!
Nice project.....I had same idea for lifting my drill press on my all purpose woodworking cart. I think I'm going to use a motorcycle lift- same concept but a larger support on top for the base. Hope to make a video soon when I get this finished. Cheers from Texas!
Not sure if you have plans, but I’m thinking of making something similar for my new work bench for the mitre saw. The only difference would be for me to put posts up to bottom of bench so that it secures wobble by resting on plywood when fully extended. I believe my mitre saw isn’t too high so a scissor jack like yours should be enough clearance.
There's only one thing I have changed already. Instead of the screw in knobs to secure the table when it's fully up I just used stops at the top of all the pipes and when the jack is going up it just locks in position by pushing against the stops on top of the pipes. It's so much quicker and easier. And the pressure from the jack against the stops holds everything in place perfectly 👍

OMG! I use a vehicle jack to raise and lower my planer too. This is the adapter I could on Amazon: {Dr.Roc Scissor Jack Adapter for 1/2 Inch Drive Impact Wrench or 13/16 Inch Lug Wrench or Power Drills, Scissor Jack Drill Adapter for Impact Drills Socket Automotive Jack RV Trailer Leveling Jack} And here I thought that it is a unique idea I had. My planer is under the surface of my workbench. I just remove a piece of the top surface right above the planer and then raise it up with my drill using the adapter (which I realized later I could have made my own). Great minds think alike!!

Best video idea ever thanks a ton man you are the Best.
Hehe thanks
Great work on this
Thanks
Great idea!
Thank you
The only thing I would have done differently for my shop is to make it high enough to use my workbench as an outfeed table to minimize snipe.
Awesome one mate - good solution!

Dialogue and visual content are very good. Music is very annoying
I dropped the music in my videos. Although the videos that got already published with music I can't remove it.

@@jamies8973 ditto & I agree 100%. I'm a small workshop Guy guy myself as well. And I too am tired of all the professionals on YT as well.
11:02 if the jack is removable, after lifting the tool, better.
Its not removable and thanks to that it gives more stability.
@@CasualDIY My point is that if it were removable, you could use it to lift other heavy tools too. Nevertheless, it's still good as is.

You’ve put a considerable amount of thought into the redesign of your workshop & it’s very impressive mate 👍
Thanks mate I'm trying to make it work. Still a bit of work left
Looks great Thomasz! Loving all the new clever storage solutions in the shop.
Thank you kindly 😁 it took a while but I'm finally starting to see the light in the tunnel

Hi, Sorry no plans but it's a very simple design and you can adjust it to your needs easly 👍
I love this idea, I think I'll try to adapt it for my workshop, thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks, glad you liked it and I hope it will work out for you 👍
Looks great thomasz. Is it stable enough to do the job well?
Hi and thanks. Yes it's stable as a rock done some scaffolding planks 2.4m with no issues 👍
Best video idea ever thanks a ton man you are the Best.
Pretty cool solution. Super creative!
Thank you kindly my friend glad you liked it 😁
Good solution. I have a combined planer/thicknesser. Not sure where to store it
Thanks, storage in small workshops is always an issue

If you add some collars to the top of the pipes that may help in determining when the platform is fully extended. Great video. Keep up the good work.
Yes that could work at the minute I just extend to the max and hope for the best ;)
