It's a beautiful piece you made, it really is. I'm just confused by all of that work for gaining what five six more inches on either side? I think I would have made something that added at least a foot on either side. I don't think that's going to help in the least with something like an 8 ft or a 10 ft piece of wood.
I truly agree! The problem I have had so far is actually stability. If I added a table that was longer at this point where it’s on a small trolley I fear it would either allow the indeed to lift the table and cause snipe or it would lead to the entire cart becoming more unstable due to the long reach. If I’m honest I would say this was a chance to play with a new toy, build and film something but it’s not the last you’ll see of this thicknesser and I’ll definitely take your advice when I can build more robust base.
