In this series of videos, I will show you how to build an assembly table with built-in dust collection, built-in air compression system, electrical outlets, router insert, and lots of storage. The base is mobile and set on casters that can accept more that 2200 lbs of weight. I will be using this as an outfeed table for my table saw as well. The dimensions of the table top is 4x7 ft. Since this is a big project, the build will be divided into several parts. In part 3, I will build the table top and the drawers. The top is made out of three sheets of 3/4 inch plywood, with a red oak border. The top sheet will be removable, but would require cutting the red oak border; something I don't anticipate doing for a very long time. I will also show you how I build drawers. The drawers are made out of 1/2 inch plywood with 1/4 plywood bottoms.

instead of taking down that lip with router you could have used the same sheet of 1/4 mdf that you are assembling the drawers on, glue formica and use it as a replaceable top instead of beating up on the table top itself you can just remove it and put another one. formica is the best material as an outfeed because everything just glides on top of it, glue ups don't stick to it and also easy to clean.
Says s lot when when a man can show his mistakes....we all make em and that's our best teacher.
Very true my friend! Wait till you see the lazy mistake I made in part 4.
Guess if I had read your entire explanation first, my question would have been answered. Again, really love your table
I was sick and tired of putting groceries on the bed and finding everything all over the place when I got home
Thanks, and the Beer, Beards and BBQ was a great touch!!
I just came across your channel and I absolutely love it. So much information and tips. Thanks amigo!!!
Thank you my friend! If someone can walk away with one new idea, then the video is a success in my mind.
Those blow-out wire nails result from holding the nailer horizontally instead of vertically. Wire nails drift side to side following wood grain so always anticipate drift in relation to external surfaces when positioning a nailer. A coat of Minwax finishing wax to your table top will allow you to pop off dried glue drips with ease. Just wondering, no dog holes? Really nice table you made.
Nice work. I’ll never understand the idea behind making the 3/4 frame aside for the overall strength, but then only using 1/4 inch panels for the bottom of the drawers your going to load up with tool… I would rather make 100% of it out of 1/2 and double up where I need to structurally and know the bottom of my drawers aren’t going to fall apart over time.
On larger drawers I use 1/2 inch, but these aren’t that big.
That is increíble my friend .
Love the soundtrack. Who is it?
Love your table, plan on making a similar one for myself. I will probably use mdf, although I have a sheet of 3/4 t&g subfloor leftover from a remodel a few years ago that's been looking for a home. Was also wondering why you glued the oak to the edge, after making sure not to glue the top sheet down? Really liked how you explained everything so thoroughly
Nice table but you killed it at the end when you put that plywood on top. $100 per sheet, 3 sheets ($300) and you can't even true up the surface by planing because you guessed it, it's plywood!
Thanks for checking out the video. I'm not sure where you live and what you use your assembly table for, but even now with covid related shortages, plywood costs less. I paid about $80 for those 3 sheets of ply, one of them furniture grade maple ply (pre-covid prices). As far as the surface goes, the only thing flatter would be a torsion box, but that is a completely different workbench.
@@ArtisanMade Fair enough, table is awesome, I think I might copy the entire design, I would use a 2x4 top and plane it though.
That would be real solid. I can’t afford 2x4s anymore. They cost more that $8 right now. Unbelievable!
Solid top, love it!
Thank you!! I'm afraid to scratch it!
Can’t thank you enough. Fantastic project, planning, narration, pace and use of available tools and supplies.
Been looking for “my” perfect assembly/outfeed table for a bit and may have found it here.
Heigh? Is it fine adjustable to match the saw or did you do a super job measuring?
Thank you. I built it to be a 1/4 inch lower than the saw.
Hello teacher very nice job
P.s. it’s your student josh
Thank You! Hope you are all doing well!
Artisan Made were doing great
Stay safe
Could you clarify for us please--the first two sheets are glued together using screws overnight. Are these screws going all the way through the two 3/4" plys? Did you use the same screws to attach the third sheet of ply? How long are these screws? I'm asking for these details because I anticipate adding t-track and/or dog holes. I'm guessing one would need to transfer some tick marks around to the top side to indicate where the lines of screws are located....OR do the screws just not go that deep into that top sheet of ply?
For the first 2 sheets, I used 1.5 inch screws with extra large heads. This is important because that way the screw doesn’t bury itself in the wood. Instead, it pulls the two pieces together and the glue adheres better. When it’s dry, remove all screws. I used the same style large head screws but 2 inches in length for the third sheet. I’m telling you all of this from memory. When I’m home later I will double check. If anything is different from what I wrote here I will let you know.
Awesome I loved it, got my sub
Awesome, thank you!
what is the final height of this outfeed table?
How is the 3rd and final top removable? It was glued and nailed on the sides? I can’t wrap my head around it. Can you give me some insight?
The fist two layers were glued. The top board is not glued. Only screwed.
@@ArtisanMade but it was glued and nailed with the red oak trim on the sides. Is there an easy way to remove the oak trim to replace the top if and when it needs to be replaced? Thank you for your reply. I sometimes over-think things. That may be the case here...lol. I am in the middle of the build. While we are at it, why not go with a 20 amp inlet plug to power the whole table instead of 15Amp? just curious.
I'm going to begin building this table. I need to know the total height of the table. My table saw is just under 35 inches. It appears your table might be a little taller depending the height of casters.
Send me an email to artisanmadethings@gmail.com. I will email you the design with specs of the of the frame I built in the part 1 video.
I might make one with your plans but I’ll prolly use Mdf 3/4 then have a 3/4 birch on top. I’m confused why you used so many sheets
I wanted a very solid top and I would have liked to use MDF, but that stuff is so heavy and I don't have any extra hands to help me.
Artisan Made I know what you mean I have a wood cart full of it bought it for like 8.53 a sheet in clearance.. I seen you added part 4 today awesome! And thanks for the free plans, it’s nice when wood workers don’t charge for everything. But I’d love to donate something! Please add a donate spot on your website so I can and anyone else that appreciates your kindness and ideals and hard work
Hey thanks for the idea! I never thought about doing that, but that is a good idea. Maybe it could pay for running the site.
Good Lord Man, how much does that thing weigh?! Nice work!
I'm almost finished with it. When it's all done, I'd say it will be about 450-500 lbs With nothing stored in it yet. Going from no table at all to this thing is a world of difference.
I'm about to start a table of the same calibur and would love to model mine after your table... I'm wanting to add drawers on both sides of the table and add T track to the top, I was only going to use 2 sheets for the top, with the 1st sheet being MDF for rigidity and a plywood top. I dont need the air compressor as my brad nailer is cordless. I do like the idea of adding electric power to the ends. I dont have a 4 inch dust collection system but I'd imagine I could use 2.5 inch pvc with my current shop vac and upgrade later ?
I'd like to know how many sheets of plywood you have used so far?
I’m going to post the plans in a few days. Check my website this weekend and you will be able to download them for free.
Email me pics.when you are finished. I would love to see the finished product.
@@ArtisanMade ya I'm in the planning stage now I'll get your plans and modify it to work for my needs... I'm a newbie woodworker so this will be my 1st attempt at something of this calibur
Can’t wait to see it! If you have any questions along the way, feel free to message me. Good luck!
@@ArtisanMade are you willing to say how many sheets of ply you used in total? Would like to ballpark potential material costs.
Have you done the outdoor pizza oven yet?
I hope to restart the oven project in June
Artisan Made ok
