Shop table - planer / oscil. sander on revolving top?

[Chris Cobb]

Seems I've seen a post or 2 about this, but I can find plans for a mobile shop station where an oscil. sander is on one side of the top and a planer is on the other - and you simply rotate the top around to work 1 machine vs. the other.

Can someone point me to plans for this worktable? LOML tells me I have to organize my shop (garage) before I get my new bandsaw... this will certainly help get both machines off the garage floor!

thanks
Chris

Chris, get a copy of "The Complete Small Shop" from August Home Publications, on page 90 they have what you are looking for.

also somewhere in shop notes this past year I believe, as I read the article and know what he's talking about, but don't have the mags handy

Jim, I entered The Complete Small Shop" from August Home Publications into google, and it was one of the few times Ive gotten ZERO HITS - any more info on where to find this? Amazon doesn't work either.

I have a 36 x 48 building for my shop, but #1 son has 1/3 of a 1-1/2 car garage so I keep an eye out for anything that'll help... Steve

I plan to do this as well. Here's one link: http://www.woodstore.net/swivtoolcab.html

There was a couple other nice ones people built and posted pictures to in this forum. Search planer stand or something similar.

You've got some good links to plans from our fine folks. Here's my version before I swapped the mitersaw for a sander. Planer is still on one side. IIRC this is the Complete Small Shop version more or less. One tip, don't scrimp on the casters like I did. I am looking to upgrade to full locking.

Sooo, anybody got a link to Complete Small Shop? Closest thing I found on Amazon is this

Appreciate knowing if this is what you're talking about or not... Steve

They show it here:

But the link appears to be broken. You may have to email Woodsmith or Shopnotes and ask if it is still available.

Glenn, thanks - kinda wierd, when I first went to that link the title was there - then I clicked on it, and the page refreshed and "Pfffffffft it was gone..." Steve
