7 Must- HaveFiles

We'llshow you the tools you need to get super

smoothshapes

in allmaterials.

ightweight or sturdy.Whenit comes

to building projectsfor the shop,

you usually get one or the other but not

both. But that's exactly what we wanted for

the Worktable featured on page 36.A large,

sturdy worksurface that was light enough

to be easily carried anywhere.

To keep the weight dowry we started

with lightweight materials -7/4" birch ply-

wood and some pine. Nothing fancy. In

fact, everything came from a local home

center. Then to make it even lighter, Chris

Fitch (SeniorProjectDesigner) started rout-

ing away any excessmaterial. His challenge

was to remove enough material to make it

lighter, without making it flimsy.

Well, we ended up with a compact, fold-

ing table supported by four lightweight

plywood "I-beams." The entire project

weighs in a bit over L5lbs.

Certainly lightweight, but is it sturdy? To

find out we carried out a little unscientific

test.We put four average-sizedwoodwork-

ers on top of the table (photo above). Now

I'm not going to recommend that you use

this project asa scaffold or an engine stand,

but as you can see it's plenty sturdy for a

portable worksurface

GamGlampin€ Table

Clamping small and odd-shaped pieces

is sometimes a drallenge. But Ite

found an effective, yet simple clamping

method. It involves using circular cams

and cleats on a plywood base.

As you can see in the photo beloW I

used 4"-dia. plywood disks. I drilled a

small hole sized for a #8 screw that was

offset about he" from the center of the

disk. This off-center hole is what tums

the disk into a cam for clamping action.

To use the cams, I just fasten them

to a piece of plywood so the shortest

" radius" is against the project This way,

asyou tum the disk, its cam action tight-

ens against the project. The great thing

about this is that you can position the

cams right where you need them.

For small frames like you seebelow, I

fasten two cleats at right angles.You can

nestle one comer of the frame against

the cleats and use the cams to apply

clamping presswe. It's an easy system

that's prevented a lot of frustration.
