Wow, that front yard and neighborhood reminds me of when I lived in Spokane. Miss the green grass and trees. But not the cold. Great table man. Looks awesome.
Built this stand about 6 months ago. I used the space at the bottom of my stand for a 7" deep drawer to hold all the accessories for the spindle sander and planer. I put a folding shelf on one side to use as a support for my bench jointer. Perfect addition for my already crowed shop. Thanks for sharing.
That was pretty impressive. I don't think I would build one, but I got a lot of good ideas from your video. Good info, and good production quality, thanks for taking the time to make it.
Well done Jeff. Yours and Art Mulder's inspired me to build one that has my miter saw and surface planer. Works great. Two bench power tools in a footprint for one. I do lock mine down with threaded knobs after rotating a tool. It makes the unit more rigid.

I really enjoyed the detailed build video, Jeff!! I am just putting a small shop together myself and your video has inspired me! thank you for posting!!!!
Great design man. Might be doing the same thing in my shop.
Only took two years :).
That's a great design. Much better than another way I've seen. Thanks
I like it... Simplified from the other versions I've seen by eliminating the drawer, etc. Creating the "bin" at the bottom which doubles as support is a nice touch.
I actually have the same problems with shop space and the exact same sander and planer. I've been combing youtube looking for ideas exactly like this. Great build and thanks for some solid ideas!
Very nice design and build. Glad you put the horizontal brace in. I have installed the Delta T2 rail system on my craftsman also a few years ago. Best upgrade purchase I ever made. I was going to suggest you look at my video about the router table I installed between my TS rails but then saw you had already built a little bench top router table. My ridged sander and ridged planner sit on the floor under my Shopsmith collecting dust until needed. But my wall space is premium and filled so no flip top for me. If I had the space, I would be building the same as you did and did well! Thanks for sharing.
loved it. great project well projected to the tube. must make one of these for my tiny single garage shop
Great job on the Flip Top tool stand! I think a lot of us over engineer some of our shop projects but the way I look at it, it is better to over than under engineer it. So no harm in a couple extra pocket hole screws!
+Mike Merzke Thank you, Mike. I plan on having this around for a good while so building it to last was of great importance. I'm still thinking about adding a couple shallow self boxes to either side since now that the OSS spends half it's time upside down I can't store the spacers, drums and belt assembly on the sander itself. realized that the hard way the first time I went to spin the top... Doh!!!
Space saver for sure! Thanks.
Very nice clear video, thank you. I loved the addition design thoughts as you went along
Thanks for all the free content, hope you're still alive and stuff!
THIS IS AWESOME!! I WILL FOR SURE MAKE THIS FOR MY SHOP.
Watched a lot of these builds, this is the most sensible way of making a flip top cart. Thanks
This one is much better.

Thats a pretty good tip about the domino I always see people marking it out and I always assumed that the best way to do it, yours seems more accurate and quicker!
Excellent build and great video!!
Great Job. I'm moving to a new home this weekend and my first job is building my workshop. This is exactly what I had in mind. Thanks, Great Vid'
Very slick system Jeffrey! Really like your sliding 'lockout' knobs too!
Joe
Thanks, Joe. Wish I could take credit for the design but it's based off a stand I found after doing a Google search a while back. I couldn't find drawings or dimensions so I had to improvise and just build to my need. This is going to save me a ton of space and make using these tools so much easier.
This is impressive. Solid as a rock too.
Great job! Thanks for sharing!!!
Great idea.. Putting it on my to do list. Thanks!
Great Job Jeff.
Excellent video, great space saving build!
Congratulations lad! Good work.
Bloody good build mate ! thanks for sharing
Thx for sharing this. Excellent approach.
Nice build!. I need to replace my "Tool Stacker" system with a couple of those flip top stands.
that domino trick was cool.
Really excellent job Jeff.
Nice tool cabinet and well done video! Thanks for sharing brother!
I like I like TY Sir I for sure will do the same for my 12”Disc sander and Bench top drill press to get the press off my bench !
Thx’s
I need to build one of these! Thanks.
Well done good sir. GOD BLESS you.
Great idea,congratulations my friend !
nicely done. exactly what I was looking for.
Nice project. looks like you had a bit of room at the bottom to insert a small cabinet with a drawer so you can store your planer accessories and spindle sander's as well.
+Jose A I was thinking something similar. Put a shelf as high up as possible while allowing tool clearance and add a drawer just underneath. The shelf will help reduce the wobble like the current supports do and catch dust and debris and keep the latter from mingling with the accessories in the drawer
That's a pretty good idea for a small shop
Ok, cool video nice build! Thanks for sharing.
Great design. I'll build one the same. I might put a drawer at the bottom which should also stiffen sides.
Nice build! Helpful video. Thanks
Very good! I like the thought you have put into the design. I have been wanting to have one just like this and now you have provided me with the inspiration! Thank you for your video
Holy crap, the little nub on the top of a glu-bot is to hold the cap while you're using it.
I didn't realize this. I don't know how. You just blew my mind.
I think I'll combine this great idea with the jointer on the side
Sweet idea for locating the dominos!
Clever,well done.
genius! awesome!
Very cool! Thank you.
"May" have gone overboard with the pocket screws?!?!?! LMAO!!! .... Love the table ! Thanks for the idea!
I was thinking the same thing, got a good laugh out of the "truth" of this comment
My dad used to say, " where one screw or nail would do, two will do better!"
0:50 it's nice to see someone else like me who has to take it to the driveway. we can't all have nice big shops with work tables and sawstops.
Excellent!
Enjoyed the build. Nice technique. You earned another subscriber.
Wow.....very well done. I'm a beginner and you gave me so much information and education. Thank you.
Great idea
I've got your same jointer! Awesome video
awesome job thanks for sharing
Interesting idea....I'm guessing that's the out feed table of the planer sticking out because of the dust hood. Turning one of the tools around would keep that out of your way. I think building a small side shelf for all the sanding drums would be handy, too. Great job, enjoyed watching.
Great job Sir. Congratulations 🇧🇷 👏 👏 👏
Nice video! Looks like I have a new project coming!!! Good Job!!
Good day mate nice build easy to follow not too much detail but enough to get a grasp of the build. Pity you didn't have dimension or plans but can make do! Thanks Stephen N.S.W.
great project
Very nice job I think I’m going to use it
You are the hero.
Nice build. 👍
You should re-think your shop layout. My shop is just 10x16 and I have been able to include everything you mentioned earlier at the beginning of the video. Believe me, woodworkers are never happy with the layout of their shop, lol. I have moved things around a few times until I finally have plenty of floor space to walk to each machine. I had a really nice router cabinet with drawers for my router bits and lots more storage. But it was too big and had to replace it. I have also utilized the wall space so anything that can hang that's where it went. Best of luck and love the table/cart.
Very helpful. Thanks.
well done. i think tht this will be my next "must have" because of having limited space in my shop! ;-)
Well done thanks....
Tim
Just a good straight forward design. I wish you would of shown how you installed those swivel bolt locking thing-a-ma-jigs. I'm not really familiar how they work, in fact I've never seen them before. Guess I don't get out much.
Good job.
Dados, glue and a few screws is all you need. You went nuts with pocket screws!
Doesn't everyone today?
We got a ton of Kreg tards everywhere anymore that I'm so sick of seeing 1 pocket hole in anything.
Good job, I will make one
Love it but would have loved to see it work with both tools attached...
Nice job.
Nice work
super awesome that you were representing both Alaska and Hawaii in this vid. (awesome vid btw). :D
+Seth Messer Seth, Thanks. I think for my next video I'll go for Scotland and Ireland. ;o)
Excellent video.
Four prong captive nuts or threaded inserts on the inside would be a neat way to fit the bolts.
very cool
Great build! However, I was disappointed that you didn't show the rotating action once the project was completed. After all, that's what it's all about!!
I was disappointed he used pocket holes on such a great job....
what's wrong with pocket screws? It's a plywood cart for holding a plane.
Tool
exactly what i was waiting for,, i wanted to see it rotate after both machines were installed to see how easy or difficult i was,, sad :(
Nice build, but did it rotate as planned? I'm sure it did but a demonstration would of ended the story on a high note. . .maybe next time . . .LOL . . .Like I say . . . Can't think of everything . . .nice job.
nice detailed video on the build but we didn't get to see how it worked in the end.
Brad King Yeah that was a bit of a letdown. Maybe a follow up video?
Ya, I was waiting for the point when you realized all of your spindles and washers would have to be stored somewhere else when you flip the sander upside down.
Awesome build, would love to see it in action. Also, would it be possible to have a link in the description for plans to make it instead of following the video? Would be handy to print them out and have them for reference.
Great job! How has it held up. Is there anything you would do different
Bravo !!
great stand video. any plans available?
Nice build, do you have the measurements and plans for the cabinet as i have the same two Planer and Sander and would like to build this unit. Thanks

Just a helpful hint, I noticed you cutting that on the ground with your track saw. I use sawhorses with a four inch piece of 4x8 sheet of insulation with mine and its easy to move around and store not too mention alot easier than cutting on the floor. Just a quick thought that might help..
I've been meaning to build a set of stacking saw horses but other projects keep getting in the way. One day I'll finally build a pair. Probably right after I injure my back I'm sure.
im impressed with such important project - not because of installing two machines in one work table or even its operation is a must - but because we live in an era where high rent rates are sky rocketing and mobility of operator and machine should be minimized to its minimun having in mind the time involving production in any project in general which is enough to push our generation to create new mechanisms to properly operate in this environment
at the end, im wondering what color did you chose for your device ..
Amazing
Do you please have some plans available as I see this as a FANTASTIC build for my small work shop
Awesome
Great Idea. I have similar space constraints and am thinking about this. Question, after building the bottom two braces, do you feel that the cart is stable enough? Do the sides twist and/or flex any?
This came out really nice and I like the fact you used a steel/iron bar instead of a threaded smaller in diameter bar I have seen in other flip top carts. I happen to like the brackets you made for the bottom of the cart to keep it from twisting. You have room enough to build a drawer too to store accessories in if you wanted to. Do you happen to have plans for sale for this cart? Thanks for the great build video!

Hello Jefrey.... greetings from Peru... I liked a lot your work. I'm looking around for some ideas to improve the space usage in my shop which is a little small. Even tough I do not do large projects with wood, these kind of ideas help a lot to me. If you watch one of my videos you will see what do I mean. Recently I bought a sander combo machine, and I'm planning to buy a drill press. Then, I need to think how to make room for them within the space I have. Thanks for sharing, Antonio
Nice work! Just curious what table saw fence you have and if you like it? Mine is toast and looking to upgrade without having to sell my truck to buy a new one.... Thanks!
ha! i have the same delta t-2 fence on the same table saw!
great!
As an old shop teacher would say..."Those glasses ain't helpin' you by sittin' on top of your head son" :^) Good work though.
nice work bro
