I feel your pain. My wife wants new night stands. I made them about 6 years ago. I hate finishing. They have been in my shop waiting finish. I'll try to get to them after taxes. Really enjoy your videos.
I think you and Matthew Peech would get along famously! I'm learning a lot from both of you. He is made a storage shelf that flips into a table! Yours is a great design too.
I like that locking method the best out of all of the flip tops I've seen! I don't have another tool that would fit on the other side nicely, so I'll have to file this away for now.
Really cool design👍😍, I love the locking block system. This is the first time I've seen that on a flip top. I have just moved into a new home and will be attempting to utilize a 2 car garage as my shop while still affording my wife the luxury of parking inside. Thank for the space saving idea. New friends here.
This video couldn't have come at a better time! I'm looking at that exact planer and that exact sander and was wanting to somehow make a cart like that one but had concerns of how durable it would be over time. Love the block system you used and love the channel man! Awesome job!
I’ve got the same exact planner and am looking at the same Ridgid spindle sander. I like the blocks for securing the knobs. I’ve built an older model that worked OKAY. I’m hoping this plan surpasses the previous one!
I'm in the middle of a flip top build and I think I'm gonna copy your latching mechanism. Very clever. Btw, you should make your videos a bit longer. The TH-cam algorithm recommended your sawstop review and then I scrolled through your vids and the builds and content are great. I think 10-20min vids get more views which you deserve.
Very slick design - especially the locking mechanism as many have mentioned. Just bought the plans - very professionally done. Has anyone built this for the DeWalt DW734 planer? Almost every fliptop table I see on the interwebs was built for the DW735. The 734 is a PITA to remove the dust shroud - I don't want to do it - and therefore the outfeed table can only raise about 45 degrees. Not sure if the plans as drawn will handle that planer? It's not straightforward to mock it up and figure it out.
The important thing is the height. If the height is comparable, it should be fine. You could also find a model of the 734 in Sketchup and add it to the model in the plans to see if it fits. Thanks for supporting the channel!
Seems like it would be tough to flip over because of the weight. It may also cause the top to warp or sag over time with a planer on one side and nothing on the other.
Thanks for getting the plans! The locking mechanism is essentially T-bolts (amzn.to/3OOwuLN) and knobs that you can tighten with your hand (amzn.to/3ETzK3H). You don't have to get these exact ones, but I prefer 1/4-20 bolts and knobs. Send me an email if you have any other questions.
Hey Jared. I’ve got the same planer and sander and I just bought the plans. Very nicely designed and illustrated! For the 1/2” steel bar, would 1/2” cast iron pipe work as a replacement?
Thanks for getting the plans! Yes I think a pipe could work as long as the outside is fairly smooth and the walls aren't super thin. That will keep the rotation smooth and not dig out the wood whenever it rotates.
The main thing that limits the outfeed table folding up is the location of the dust collector connection. It's more difficult to remove than the outfeed table.
What is the height above the floor of the outfeed table on your planer? I'm wondering if it will clear my existing 34"H outfeed table that I would like to roll it up to.
I tried to buy this in your shop several times but it doesn't work. I go through all the paypal stuff then I just get a link that says go back to store and I never get a link to download.
"If you don't build it, I'll buy it". Man, how many times have I heard that?!?!?!? Soooooooooo, we're at about 75% (build)/25% (buy). Hard to keep up with The Commander!

I build this as soon as the plans were released and it works great.
That's great to hear! Thanks for buying the plans!

What a difference a few years of video production makes! You've come so far!
I'm glad you were able to stand by your word on the bookcase.
I may not be fast, but I'll get there!
This is so smart!! My jaw literally dropped when I saw the initial switch. Well designed!
I think you and Matthew Peech would get along famously! I'm learning a lot from both of you. He is made a storage shelf that flips into a table! Yours is a great design too.
That's funny... @MatthewPeechWoodworking and I are actually really good friends! We do get along great and he has tons of awesome ideas!
Bahaha...sing it with me "It's a small world after all..." you know you did...lol
I just watched the original and then this one came up in my list. Your first video. It's nice to see how the item has held up over the years.
Thanks! Hopefully I look less awkward too!
The lock blocks are a good idea.
Thanks!
I like that locking method the best out of all of the flip tops I've seen! I don't have another tool that would fit on the other side nicely, so I'll have to file this away for now.
Thanks! It works really well
Thank you. I been looking at making my own. for my osculating sander and my miter think im going to use your lock idea Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I've been looking at these for a while. I think this is a better design. Thanks
Thanks man!
Great design thanks

Good luck with your new setup! It can be done!
I just bought the plans and I am very impressed. I have the same sander and a little different Dewalt planer. Looking forward to starting the build.
Thanks! I'm glad you like the plans. Let me know if you have any questions
This video couldn't have come at a better time! I'm looking at that exact planer and that exact sander and was wanting to somehow make a cart like that one but had concerns of how durable it would be over time. Love the block system you used and love the channel man! Awesome job!
Thanks! Glad it helped... it's a perfect setup for those two tools. Good luck!
This is a mighty space saving idea. Great job
Thanks! It's pretty handy
Great locking devise, I purchased the plans!
Thanks!
just bought the plans they are very detailed thank you for making them
Awesome! Thanks for the plans review!
I have heard virtually the same speech from my wife also. 😀 think of it as a motivational speech...
Yes! I just need to change my perspective!
Thank You
I’ve got the same exact planner and am looking at the same Ridgid spindle sander. I like the blocks for securing the knobs. I’ve built an older model that worked OKAY. I’m hoping this plan surpasses the previous one!
I love the sliding block design. I've used it for years now and still don't regret it!
Really great channel. Excited to see it grow.
Thanks for the support!

Thanks man! Yeah I'm trying to figure out what the optimal video length is, but yeah the longer ones do seem to be doing better

How is the height of the spindle sander? Is it easy to work with that high?
Yes! It's actually easier to sand to a line because it's closer to your eye level... but it's not too high
Nice job I need the plans
I have them on my website www.eveningwoodworker.com/buyplans
What do you think about putting planer on one side and other side being part of a miter saw bench? Would it be so unbalanced as to be unusable?
Seems like it would be tough to flip over because of the weight. It may also cause the top to warp or sag over time with a planer on one side and nothing on the other.
Hi, I downloaded the plan for the flip table, I really like the lock mechanism, how do I find them on Amazon?
Thanks for getting the plans! The locking mechanism is essentially T-bolts (amzn.to/3OOwuLN) and knobs that you can tighten with your hand (amzn.to/3ETzK3H). You don't have to get these exact ones, but I prefer 1/4-20 bolts and knobs. Send me an email if you have any other questions.
The plywood you did use what type of plywood and thickness
I used 3/4" birch plywood.
Where did you get the casters?
I think they were at Rockler, but they should be locking both directions of rotation.
Hey Jared. I’ve got the same planer and sander and I just bought the plans. Very nicely designed and illustrated! For the 1/2” steel bar, would 1/2” cast iron pipe work as a replacement?
Thanks for getting the plans! Yes I think a pipe could work as long as the outside is fairly smooth and the walls aren't super thin. That will keep the rotation smooth and not dig out the wood whenever it rotates.
If the flip top table were a bit wider would you still have to remove the planer out feed table?
The main thing that limits the outfeed table folding up is the location of the dust collector connection. It's more difficult to remove than the outfeed table.
@@EveningWoodworker thanks, I bought your plans and can't wait to get started...
Couldn't the owner be rotated 90⁰ so the outfeeds don't interfere with the sides of the cabinet?
Outfeed rotated, not owner
Then you have to account for the raising/lowering handle which sticks out a good 5-6"
Have you seen any problems with storing these kinds of power tools in an upside-down position? Just wondering.
Been doing it with the planer and sander for years and haven't had an issue
@@EveningWoodworker thank you for the information.
I purchased your plans and just got the materials to start building it.
What is the height above the floor of the outfeed table on your planer? I'm wondering if it will clear my existing 34"H outfeed table that I would like to roll it up to.
The wood feeding into the planer sits at about 37" off the ground. Should clear a 34" outfeed table.
I tried to buy this in your shop several times but it doesn't work. I go through all the paypal stuff then I just get a link that says go back to store and I never get a link to download.
I've been having some website issues that I'm working on... send me an email directly and I can help you: jared@eveningwoodworker.com
You had Me till the mask promo. ✌🏻
Haha! I really hope we can be done with these dang masks soon!
Can you tell me the height of this cabinet?
The height is 34.5"
Good build and nice design., just the excuse I need to go get some new toys, I mean tools....
Always happy to provide an excuse for you!
"If you don't build it, I'll buy it". Man, how many times have I heard that?!?!?!? Soooooooooo, we're at about 75% (build)/25% (buy). Hard to keep up with The Commander!
If a man says he'll do something, then he'll do it. You don't have to remind him every six months ladies!
Haha so true!
