RAILS FIT INTO — NOTCHES FOR QUICK SET UP AND BREAKDOWN

TALL HEIGHT

52--:

Take a look at the drawings on this page and you'll see how versatile this workstation really is. The two rectangular legs are connected by rails that fit into notches. The legs are notched on two sides to create two working heights. And they're laminated for added strength.

You can make a set of long rails, short ones, or both in four different configurations — all from one sheet of plywood and some dimensional stock (cutting diagram below).

Building this workstation isn't difficult. You'll need a circular saw or table saw to cut the plywood

down to size. And you'll need a drill, router, and jig saw to shape the legs and make the notches in the legs and rails. Since the legs are laminated, Shop Shortcuts on page 14 shows you how to make them. You'll see how all the pieces go together starting on page 34.
