Build a Simple Sanding Table

Sunday July 20, 2008
Sanding can be a nasty, dirty job, even when connecting a dust collector to your sander. There are ways to combat the dust, though. Using a sanding table one way to combat the dust.

Sanding tables tend to be large, stationary accessories that require quite a bit of floor space. What do you do if you have a small shop, and don't have the room for a big sanding table?

Phil Huber, the online editor of ShopNotes has a great idea. Check out his simple 24" x 18" table-top sanding table made with a piece pegboard. A simple, yet pretty smart concept.

For us amateurs it would be helpful for the plans to include the top/back and bottom/front angles to cut the baffle at for the best fit.
