Quick Outfeed Table
Aug 02, 2006
Only rarely do I need an outfeed table for my tablesaw, and I don’t have room for a permanent table. So I came up with this simple space-saving solution. I raised a folding table to the same height as the tablesaw by extending the legs with four lengths of 1-1/2-in. PVC pipe. The pipe isn’t permanently attached; I just slip the pieces over the existing metal legs. When I’m finished with the table, it folds quickly for storage.

The WoodRiver circle jig, which produces cuts up to 32-1/2 in. dia., and I can confidently recommend it. Unlike similar jigs that can pop off of their pivots mid-cut, ruining a panel in the process, this one has a robust pivot point that registers securely in the jig and workpiece.
