Raising the height of my table saw - a lot
Bob Hodge posted a topic in Machinery, Tools, Research, Reviews and Safety
I am a very tall guy, now with six spinal fusions. I cannot lean over lest more will be required. By the rule of thumb to have the table saw height at your elbow, I must raise this almost ten inches. This is basically a contractors saw in a cabinet (the sales guy actually talked me out of a Unisaw for what I do because most is on a lathe). It does what I want just fine. I can build some simple riser frame or platform yet I wonder a bit about stability. The saw sits on the outside black frame, though I suspect there may be some feet underneath (except I can't get to them without bending over and lifting it. I will bet there is wisdom and experience on this topic that would help me do something great and simple, and inexpensive. Thanks ahead of time. Next up will be my router table. I've got my Laguna lathe raised a bit and will do it some more, with several friends (400 pounds)
