Nothing fancy here… just a couple of flathead bolts with some big washers on the bottom… Let me know if that doesn’t show what you want/need…
Sure thing… would love to swap some ideas. I would really like to have some kind of “pull out” or “removable” dogs instead of a constant board… I think that would make it easier to support various sized pieces. I may be wrong, but usually we’re cutting decent sized sheet goods and you don’t really need support all the way across.
There are several places that I’m not using the unistrut in the “right way” with their fasteners, mostly due to my reluctance to buy a channel nut when I could just buy a cheap bolt (for this application that was strong enough in my opinion). So don’t take what you see as the “best way”.
Not sure breaking it into sections would help, although having a L-bracket on each side of the bottom unistrut might help.
Sorry, I’m not sure I’m understanding your description… may have to have a drawing/picture on this one.
My 2x4 is tilting some, but I’m really twisting the entire unistrut. Might should have the heavier full-height kind here, but not sure that would help that much.
Looking forward to seeing it!
One nice thing about Unistrut is that when you come up with a better design, I can undo some bolts and copy you
My other (eventual) goal is to have a panel saw/track saw mount on this… that’s part of the reason the bottom crosspiece is turned as it is - to mount the track there… we’ll see if I get that done eventually.
