Hi everybody
I am interested in building a tool stand with splayed legs for my craftsman jointer. There’s one shown in the current issue of Fine Woodworking, the Tools and Shops annual issue. There is an article on settting up shop for $5000 on pg 46 and inthe picture you see a guy working beside his table saw and behind him you can see his planer on that stand. Does somebody have any plans for such a stand or tell me where I can find one.
Thanks

I just watched an episode of new yankee workshop. It looks like what you are describing. Here is a link with a picture. I have done several of Norm's projects and the videos and drawings are well done. Good luck on the search.

Bones,
Thanks for the link. but I would search for something more solid.

I have the Delta planer stand if you want one. Never have used it! Not sure it'd work for a jointer, though, even a benchtop.

Forestgirl, do you have any picture or specs available?
Thanks

It should be like this one at Amazon:http://www.amazon.com/Delta-50-322-Planer-2Delta-Planers/dp/B00002239A
I'd have to check for dimensions. Like I said, never have assembled it. I have my planer mounted to a Rigid miter saw stand. You serious? I'll be glad to take a closer look (after I find it, LOL! No, I can find it........)
Funny "reviews" at Amazon. At least I'd be sure and send you all the pieces.forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)
Thanks for the info. Is it the same that u have or is it something like it? because the reviews that it has on Amazon really put me off. And I dont want to spend that kind of money when I have a ton of ply wood lying around. Hence my interest in making one like the one in the picture in FW.
Thanks, let me know what you are asking for this

I wouldn't want much for it. I'm sure it's a sturdy stand, but if you want something that has storage in it, a built cabinet would be the way to go. I'll have to take a look at that pic and see what's what. Will get back to you tomorrow.....forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)
