    Default What time of table/work bench is this?

    I came across this video where the table the man is building is on something that rotates, much like an engine stand. Any idea what type of table this is called?

    looks like exactly that, two (old) engine stands jointed together at the bottom by the SHS.

    It is a rotisserie. Principally used by motorcar restorers. Clamp the chassis between two ends, and then turn it over when you want to work on the other side.

    Pretty good idea here, when working on large panels. Also great for barbies

    Crazy! I can drop my tools and everything else on the floor quite easily - I don't want the table doing it for me.

    Car rotisserie huh, seems like an interesting idea for those building lots of table tops.

    Has anyone used one before? Do you flip it and then remove the clamp on the top/working surface then reclamp if you need to rotate it?
