    Hi
    I was having difficulties with the tables:

    -Tape kept unsticking itself, sometimes with the table dropping, or worse sticking to the material I was cutting
    - for some other materials I wanted the end of the tables raised, so one can have different legs/heights.
    -the "phlatboyz.com" writing annoyed me because it caught the Depron from time to time, so removed it

    so i made that... not complete yet, but in making.

    Video on Youtube:


    I prefer not to give the gcode as i didn't use the same bit (1.5mm), and i there is a problem with the central part of the locking (i cut with minor flaws), and also the dowels in the files are for 1/4 inch, when I used 6mm.

    but it is easy to generate yourself. Attached files Front-Table-Proposal.zip (112.2 KB)Â [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    JBourdon,
    That came out great so far. The video really helps with understanding how it all works.

    Great mod!
    I take mine off every now and then, and this would make it so much easier. Figures I just made some new tables recently (took the words out too).

    Thanks!
