• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

As Requested by Phil.

This really could not be more simple. Simple mobile machinery base used on my Axminster AWEPT106 Planer Thicknesser

Two pieces of suitable sheet material, in this case old chipboard kitchen carcass and 4 locking castors. Blocks were added to each corner and a couple of carpet tiles used in expectation of reducing vibration. Not sure that it is necessary to have 4 locking castors. I usually only use two.

I have passed 2" thick chestnut boards, 2.5m long x 10"wide over and under the P/T on this base without any movement.



 
Thanks for posting Andy.

My TP is on an angle iron base with castors which eldest heir made for me. It could do with better castor though.
I need to make one for the table saw, and modify the one for the small Hegner.

Cheers
phil
