Fold down table saw out feed table

[Jay Jolliffe]

I did a search & couldn't find it. Months ago someone posted a design for a fold down out feed table for a table saw. Does any remember it or know where I could find it.....

It's Jim's design. I built one and it works great.

Tablesaw Outfeed Table
Woodworking Plan
Our handy folding fixture adds only inches to your saw when stored, but provides you with more than 3' of stock support beyond the blade for safer and more convenient cutting.

This fixture attaches to any stationary tablesaw, regardless of the style or material of your saw’s extension wings. We built ours to fit a Ridgid TS2424 tablesaw with webbed, cast-iron extension wings. But we’ll also show you how to mount the outfeed table to solid cast-iron, stamped-steel, and shop-built wooden tables.

Measures aproximately 24"x36".

Thanks for taking the time for answering ......I like the first design. Looks that it would be stabler.

Jay, when I "designed" the fold down outfeed system for the Jet cabinet saw I used to own, I wanted it to be a little sturdy since at the time I originally built it, the surface would also be serving as some additional assembly space.

One thing I would do differently after having used it for a few years, would be to consider making it full width. It would be easy to change in that respect, although it would be less efficient in material usage. 4' wide does have an advantage in that respect.

While my design was put up for a cabinet saw, some folks, including Fred Voorhess, built it for a contractors' style saw and it worked out fine. It just requires a little bit of careful planning to avoid interference with the blade/motor tilt on the back of the saw.
