Hi all, I'm planning to make two assembly tables, one 36x80 fixed, and one 30x42 rolling. I'm planning mft style tops, set up for the various work holding devices available. I have a MTF/3 for accurate squaring, so, these table tops will not requires such accuracy (but if I could get it, I'd be happy camper). I've searched here and found lots of discussion on parf drilling system, cnc contracted stuff, and couple of others. It seems making these tops was hot topic in 2016-17, but not so much since...
My plan is big box mdf, and either using my existing MTF top as a template for drilling 5/8 (rough) holes and finishing with top bearing router bit, OR using the Woodrave router guide with the 10mm shank Bosch T15020 router bit.
I'm keen to learn what others have experienced and commnents on my best way forward...
