85 - Router Table, страница 42Shop versatile PegboardHere are seven handy ways to make use of pegboard in your shop. Sanding Table A pegboard surface provides a convenient way to pull dust down into the dust collector of this sanding table (photo and drawing at right). The table is a simple box that houses a baffle to channel the flow of air inside the table. A hole is cut into one side of the box to hook up a shop vacuum or dust collector. The pegboard top is what really makes this table work. It acts as a sanding platform and helps funnel dust down into the box. To improve the airflow into the box, I drilled a shallow countersink into the existing holes. Drill Guide Attach a cleat to one side of a small piece of pegboard and you have an instant drilli ng guide for shelf pins. Drill tire first hole and insert a dowel into it to hold the jig while you drill tire rest of the holes. Finishing Carousel The carousel above allows me to rotate a small project to easily reach each side while I'm applying a finish. Pointed pegs lift the workpiece, so I can get to the bottom. A piece of pegboard on top of the plywood platform serves as a template when drilling holes for the pegs. Plus it adds extra support to tire pegs. 42 ShopNotes No. 85 CUT CENTERED HOLE ON FRONT TO FIT PLASTIC REDUCER PLATFORM COUNTERSINK BACK #» x 1'/2" Fh WOODSCREW NOTE: ALL FRAME PIECES ARE MADE FROM %" PLYWOOD SHARPEN DOWELS IN PENCIL NOTE: COUNTERBORE BOTTOM OF BASE FOR NUT COFFEE CAN LID SERVES AS LAZY SUSAN "BEARING" |
