      Probably once in my minds eye I see it as; when it was to be used there was stuff stacked up against the wall in the way. So the stuff was moved, the table taken down, and the stuff put back. Then with the stuff in the way, the table wasn’t put back and shelves went up to hold the stuff and the table gets pushed up near the wall.
      At least that’s how it would work out for me😂

    After I watched this I used this idea to get my motorcycle lift out of the middle of my garage. Same concept. I lower it all the way down, roll it against the wall, and hinge it against the wall. It is supported, and hinges on top of a few 4x4 posts about 8" high. Its about 300 lbs or so, so it takes a bit to hinge it up, but once its up I use a few wood screws with fender washers on them and screw them through pre-existing holes that are in the deck of the lift. Works like a charm. I have a fold down work table on that same wall that folds down and hides the motorcycle lift. Thanks for the idea! 🍻

      sadly , the "old world" techniques are being lost and not many still have those skills in today's modern era of glue and screws. I've got a a jewelry box my late grandfather made before I was born for my mom when she was still very young. there's not a single nail, screw or glue in the entire thing. all just joints that very carefully interlock into each other. I would love to know how he did it. but he's sadly not with us.

      Be honest now - just how often would your sewing table be totally clear, and free to fold up? 😄

    There's two problems with this. Problem 1: It will always be cluttered with junk, so you won't be able to readily fold it up as intended. Problem 2: In the rare event that you DO clean it off and fold it up - the area it would occupy when unfolded will fill up with clutter and then you won't have room to unfold it and use it. Nice try though.

    • @johnsellers9623
      @johnsellers9623 Před 7 měsíci +28

      Man I guarantee you work or have worked in a shop, because over the years when you always run out of work bench space and build another one, it never fails to happen that no matter how many workbenches you have they always become junk collectors. I had a boss that loved me and my work. I could do no wrong with him. But when I said I wanted to build a workbench, he said John clean anyone of the benches you want to and you can have it. They are nothing but junk collectors, pretty soon you won’t be able to move around in here with another one. He was so right.

      Like lanes in an LA freeway. Everybody thinks a fold-up workbench is a great idea so videos like this do really well. In reality, better workflow and easy-access storage shelves are the only way to "make more space". Been here done that.
