Re: Making a Roubo Workbench: Part 2

Mike,

I've recently had a similar problem to you. When I held a number of thicknessed lengths of oak together a mysterious bow appeared.

I believe that it was from a slight miss-alignment in my thicknesser blades which meant they were not perfectly parallel to the bed upon which they were being passed through. The result was that all the pieces that went through the machine came out very slightly wedge shaped.

The error was not evident on each individual item (when I put the micrometer to work there proved to be a difference measurable only in the hundreds of millimeters) but when they were pulled together this error was compounded and the bow appeared.

If nothing else its food for thought

Re: The Not So Big Workshop

Hey there,

Would it be an option to move the dust extraction outside so as to free up space. Not sue how it would work in your climate but I've seen them set up in insulated plywood boxes to protect them from the environment and to protect the environment from any noise.

Just a thought!

Other than that, I feel your pain. I've got my workbench set up in my bedroom until I move to a more suitable place. No power tools allowed which is not such a bad thing...
