@frimand84

yes i did, with a router and a 20mm bit, every 96mm. It is quite easy to do if you use a simple mdf guide with a mark every 96mm, and clamp it to the top.

thank you, the T-tracks come from a normal hardware store. They are normally used as rails for gliding curtains.

You can also find more sturdy and expensive ones meanth for woodworking applications, but cheap curtain ones work aswell.

This is by far the best small workshop setup I have ever seen. Thank you for the ideas - particularly the mortised legs with adjustable pegs and domino holes to accept the clamps. I plan to apply your idea to my portable knock-down table for holding doors on edge. As for the curtain track, I feel like I should send you a dollar for pointing that one out.

Class. Very good set up... Can't help but think it gets very dusty been so small... Even with all your extraction set up. Nice tools. I've dewalt.. the festools are very very expensive. Wonder are they worth it. Only ever used the plunge saw on guide rail.. it was great job.

Fantastic use of space, really very well thought out. There are loads of ideas here i'm going to incorporate into my workshop.

How big is your workshop? It looks fairly small but very nicely organized.

Sorry... Where did you get the tracks for the front of the workbench?

[NewTechnologyNow]

Vert nice workshop!! I hope to do the same one day... How did you get the tracks on the the front of the workbench?

love it such a good space. I use a bungee elastic cord to suspend hose from ceiling stretchyy your hinge sys looks effective tho . I used to have my plug it cord taped with electrical tape to hose too, but after three yrs it came off- now i have used cable ties every 100mm its great!
