    Great looking workbench, a workbench on 4 locking castors might be a good option to have, especially for install days, it’s nice to be able to move the workbench around. Also the ability to attach a lower shelf to the side of the workbench, just to be able to place the track saw out of the way of the main work area,

    As an MFT/3 user, I really, really like the ability to stand them on end for storage without bending the t-track slots. since watching this video i have thought of so many uses in my shop. any plans to sell this without legs or without the top? as someone that would be paying shipping to the US, and then possibly removing the legs and making an assembly table out of a couple, that would be a great option. super excited to see the upcoming accessories too!

    Very nice and fixes the main problems of “other tables”
    It also has some neat features, the built in braces, robust connection mechanism, the carry handle.
    I see in the top you have also allowed for the rail system to be set back from the main run of holes to maximise the cutting width.
    All in all great looking product.

    • @Benchdogtools

      Thanks Andy. Hope you are well. We have worked the table to maximise the cutting distance if using our hinge system so when making cabinets over 620mm can be achieved.

    Having visited the factory recently and being a previous owner of an mft this table beats it by miles. it’s the most stable table I’ve come across and versatility is going to be amazing. I’m sure we could all think of an add on that allows you to do something. Maybe side brackets for the legs to allow a door to be put on to router hinges? Great product price well by the quality I have seen.

    That looks great, well done. If I had the space in my single garage workshop I’d buy one in a heartbeat! I’ve just cut up 6 x 18mm full sheets on a makeshift table using sawhorses and CLS lengths before I could accurately cut the parts on my Mft slab, it worked but very dodgy!!
    Well done Ralph, great bit of kit.

    Great to see, love the corner block system, the side slot for introduction of clamps or T nuts. When using extrusion one side or end is normally not usable. I have built my own and understand the depth of the development. Also understand the material cost. I think this system is a winner, especially for UK with no import or shipping cost.

    Congratulations. Your MFT bench looks neat and functional. Since conceiving the idea for a small workbench with a vice which I could carry into the sun, 56 years ago, I have been thrilled to see so many iterations of this idea. I was anorexic at the time. All the best with your wonderful work.

    I have to say I've never regretted buying my MFT/3, but it has its shortcomings. You've decisively dealt with those in a package that looks pretty darn good. I checked out the price point on your website, and you're pretty bob-on, I think. Thinking about my needs, I'd like to see an option that would allow the table to be placed the a bench/storage cabinet. The corner castings on the MFT/3 allow me to have that sited on a cabinet in the workshop and lifted off for work on site with its legs folded down. Thanks for the solution and showcasing it today.

    I was going to build my own non-folding table with wheels out of extrusion for a similar price. I thought yours would be folding and I wouldnt consider it, but turns out I'm actually very tempted with what you've done 👍 The legs on yours being made of extrusion means I could easily add a removable brace across the bottom if I felt the need or fix a board with dog holes vertically under the double extrusion. Lots of other possibilities with your design too

    Looks nice, but also pricey. I do like the stabilization solution. This is one thing which bothers me on the quite new metabo table.
    To install the extension looks quite cumbersome though, but for a fixed installation alright. The metabo table seems to be nicer to be adjusted in height. Furthermore, I am missing a few things in the video:
    1. How are the small extensions to the front installed? Yes, like the extension shown, I guess. But only the one side/corner, right?
    2. What are the dimensions folded together?
    3. What are the usable dimensions? Meaning: When the fence is installed and the track hinges what cutting capacity would I have?
    My problem I have with the folding tables: I don't want to store the attachments somewhere else all the time. Yes, having the fence and hinges in a systainer could work, but still you would have to reinstall them every time. I would like to have some sort of (rubberized) feet (for the T-Track maybe?) So that the hinges can stay in place and one would still be able to place the table on the side to fold it together.

    Yes, I like it very much. It has function, form, and (something I'd need at my age doing any gig I'd be doing in a craft fair or such) it has "FLASH". Any I might have had has sailed so I'd consider this an investment. Something to add to the arsenal simply to get a passerby to pause an think, "Say, what's this table he's working on about?" That would be in a demo booth I'd be showing on for example. I imagine it will get around to the USA in short order as it's very practical and serves a plethora of uses I can think of beyond what you showed and hinted at. Good looking product but I bet there is a pretty price to it as well. I know well enough not to be afraid of buying quality tools if you can't live without them. So I'll have start getting my rationales in order for my missus.

  • @sixpotshot
    @sixpotshot Před měsícem +2

    First thank you for coming up with alternative table to the market and one which appears to have some interesting design features. Difficult to give you a decent opinion without testing one but Il ike: the mobility (wheeling) features, the Systainer carrying capacity, the connectivity, the apparent stability and the fact that it is available with a Valchromat top. What I would like: many of us work in tough grounds: setting it up like you demonstrated would wreck one of this tables in seconds as its aluminium extrusions would not be able to cope (rubber bumps on its sides would be a nice accessory to have), re the wheels: it is great to have them available but for my needs I would like even bigger (much bigger) and thicker ones: for rough terrain manoeuvrability and to easy climb over countless stairs.... and a better handle: yours is a good idea but I reckon it can be made better and ever as an accessory to fit to the rails.... My opinions have been issued against two systems I currently use: a UJK MULTIFUNCTION WORKBENCH that I mount onto a Toughbuilt saw horse (the Axminster ones for the UJK table are just so mediocre re of its price ) and an Festool Festool MFT on its own Festool cart which is a pleasure to use but that I find small (even extended) for many situations. What I think you have come up is a competitively price alternative to the best on the market: The Dashboard which is out, for most of us, of reach - a side by side comparison would be very interesting.

    Certainly is a great looking product. I can assure you the pricing looks on point. I built a Dashboard equivalent out of 5050 with all the outriggers etc. I can say that cost me over £1200 and doesn't look a pinch against this. Mine is also damn heavy, not quite as sturdy and takes a lot more time to get all the holes lining up. The BD connection system looks very good. Wish this had been out 5months ago, wouldn't have wasted a lot of time doing research & building on an interior product.

    Absolutely love these they look like a great alternative to the over priced and under engineered Festool units . My only question is work station heights. Do these tie into the work heights of the Festool sys 50 and Kapex underframes to provide a consistent work platform? Which would be perfect or are you planning to introduce accessories to mount the sys 50 and kapex flush with the benchdog mft workstation systems? Really is the key factor to whether Festool users will buy in heavily

  • @nickdawson9270
    @nickdawson9270 Před měsícem +2

    Certainly an innovative design. Good that the edge of the top is flush with side extrusion. Presumably the legs are also aluminium extrusions? So as suggested below by another there could easily (?) be scope for mounting a door on edge for hinge and latch routing. How much does it weigh please? Nothing on website in that regard.

  • @speciesofspaces
    @speciesofspaces Před měsícem

    I know I am asking a lot here but it would be simple enough to offer. Besides having the wheels in the "cart config," I have found that with my Festool MFT, two "inline wheels" on one edge of the table top are also helpful. That way I am not limited to using it as a cart and it can skate on the two inline wheels which helps me get through narrow spaces but also less of that reach over. I imagine it would just attach via the t-nut groove on the track extrusion. The wheels I have used in the past were small. But this design looks way better in terms of stability than the Festool table which is rather terrible for hand planing etc.

  • @alessandrosuppini943

    • @Benchdogtools

      We didn't want to make a cheap table like some brands are doing to get their name on an MFT table. We opted for quality as there are people who want to buy one set-up and not worry about it again, giving them many years of use; this is the table. Each table is made here in the UK by hand, not in a factory in the Far East. We want people to be proud that they have purchased a product that will not fail them and will have so many uses and add-ons in the future whether it's from us or 3rd party 3D printed. It's not the cheapest, but it's also not the most expensive; you don't have to buy extra parts to fix it. It's solid out of the box.

The best part is that it can be made from off-the-shelf components. Your solution to the legs is great. Overall the design of the table is horrible. Each solution has its pros and cons (dashboardp, ultra mft ...). Absolutely great, thank you for the inspiration - the price of the basic table is very reasonable. From me ultra MFT is no.1

    i would like the adjustable feet to be tool less if posible . if its a faf to do i wouldnt bother.
    the joining system looks solid but has parts easily lost or misplaced.
    how are those small tables attached to the middle of the extrusion. they are screaming out to have a router table insert in them
    i would love to see a lower table availible for a table saw so the main table is all outfeed. set ups like that are missing this side of the atlantic unfortunitly.
    i would love to see you adapt this into a miter saw station set up for site. main mft set up on each side with narrow 2400mm extentions either side and table saw level with it on the end. make it a total work station for 2nd fixing a house.

      as for the outriggers yes lots of other options and accessories, we have so many ideas and we have already recieve many great idea extras as well. Wwe toyed with different connection accessories and making the way we did which pulls it all together nice and tight, we may make easy to use thumbscrews instead of hex key making it easy to use.

    Really appreciate the careful thinking that has obviously gone into this. On the range options - is the 'Basic version' the same as the others except for the worktop surface? If so, then that pricing is definitely fair for getting folks started.

    • @ralphmignano215
      @ralphmignano215 Před měsícem

      The Basic version is different in some ways; the top is a more cost-effective MDF, the F clamp slots are not machined into the extrusion, meaning these could not be used, and other parts are also changed like the clamping handle will be changed for leaver other than as aluminium cam lever.

    This looks very impressive, certainly better designed than the official Festool offering.
    I’ve had a look to see if it’s possible to deliver to New Zealand, but doesn’t appear to be. Will this option become available?
    Also, would it be possible to order without the top (this would be really helpful in keeping international shipping costs down)? I’m assuming it’s a standard size MFT top?

      Looks good , I think what people have got to understand is benchdogs isn’t a cheaper alternative to Festool ,woodpeckers etc it’s just another option. They’re all over priced and none of them are perfect. I’ve bought a few bits from benchdogs the most disappointing was the fence for the mft which came with a plastic/ nylon stop which lasted about a week. I refuse to pay the 20 plus quid they want for the updated aluminium one so now I clamp a bit of wood on for repeat cuts (not ideal) . I Think too much emphasis on the Festool mft not being sturdy enough at the end of the day they are portable site benches not workshop joinery benches. I’ve got two I use daily for kitchen fitting and have never been hindered by the slight rocking. By the way you could by 3 of the metabo mft tables for less than one of these.

    • @ericd9735
      @ericd9735 Před 21 dnem +1

      Other than price and having the Valchromat option, I would say that it is inferior. No sacrificial strip, no gap between the table and the outriggers so you can rip without cutting the board. Also, the dashboard outriggers allow repeatable rip cuts without having to fool with a rail square or parallel guudes. And I don't see how the legs can be used to support doors, but that can probably be worked out.
      However I would like to say that both price and looks are huge factors and i will likely be buying 2 tables and outriggers in Valchromat.
      That being said, the dashboard accessories are unmatched in quality and functionality phenomenal and i will be buying their hinge and track stars to go with this!
