    How do you deal with jointing the long heavy boards to be glued together for the top on this project and the 10ft table?

    Wongo, thanks for the info. I reckon the Domino would save a lot of time on a job like this.

    Hi Wongo,

    The unit looks great mate.
    I'd be keen to see how you joined the steel to the frame.

    Cheers,
    Geoff

    Wongo,

    Must be a fairly well tuned triton you have to produce something like this. Is it a Mk3 or W2000?

    Also, do you have the sliding extension table attachment?

    Mat,

    Even with a big jointer, it is still hard work. I will sure the boards are reasonably flat and the jointer knifes are super sharp.

    I machined the boards for the top this afternoon. There were 6 boards, 95mm wide each. It took me an hour to select the board and another 2 hours to flatten them.

    I wonder in these situations for edge jointing whether a router run (with straight bit) along a straight edge is easier and faster?

    How do you support 7 + feet beyond the outfeed table at the end of the jointing process?

    Physical strength. hold the end of the board against the outfeed table and it is not going to go anywhere.

    No, using a router will not be eaiser.

    Hey Wongo, do you want your plans back or can you work from memory?

    I will get them back when the project is finished. Luckily there is not much I need from those plans and I know all the numbers anyway.

    The top is sealed. I always seal the top as soon as possilbe to minimize wood movement.

    The drawers have been dovetailed. Before fitting them, I'll tune up the planes first.
