If you often could use a third hand like me when gluing and clamping larger components and panels together or carrying out routing and sanding operations, this clamping table might just be the ticket! Made from a sheet of ¾" MDF covered with high-pressure laminate, it features a grid of T-slots that work perfectly with Rockler’s wide variety of stops, clamps and accessories that use T-bolts for attachment. You can make this table as large or small as you like. I’ve sized mine to fit on top of Rockler’s Material Mate Panel Cart (item 56889). The cart enables me to tip the clamping table down when I’m done using it to save space. But you could mount this project to a wheeled cart or leg base you make yourself or even to a couple of prefab cabinets you already have on hand. There are lots of options.
