To hold the stand together (and to make it easy to knock down), holes are drilled through the legs and the end dividers (G) before bolting the beam in place. lid. Next, I cut a lid (I) from 34"-thick hardwood. It fits between the legs with a V411 of clearance for easy removal, see Fig. 3. To hold the lid in place, it's glued into grooves in a pair of edging strips (J), see Fig. 3. This creates a shelf with a lip for temporary storage of lathe accessories. mounting rails. With the lid in place, there are only two things left to do. Two mounting rails (K) are screwed to the side trim pieces (C) so you can attach the top later, see Fig. 4. And to support the back edge of the top, an apron (L) is screwed to the end of these rails, see Fig. 4 and 4a. The Top_Like the legs, the top is built up from two layers of 3/4"-thick par-ticleboard. Here again, these top pieces (M) are "sandwiched" between two cover pieces (N) made of V^'-thick Masonite, see Fig. 5. trim. To cover the exposed edges, I "wrapped" the top with TOP SIDE TRIM 3/4"-thick hardwood trim pieces. After ripping the pieces to width to match the thickness of the top (2"), the side trim (0) and front/back trim pieces (P) are glued on. Then the top is completed by chamfering the top edges and corners of the trim pieces. attach tor Now it's just a matter of attaching the top to the base. To do this, center the top from side to side and front to back. Then, after drilling coun-terbored shank holes, the top is secured to the mounting rails with lag screws, see Fig. 5a.
