Good morning -
I decided that i really needed to lay out the top for the table and see how much room it really will take up.
So a half sheet of 22mm MR MDF on a mock up frame to get the feel for it.
It does cause me some issues and will have to move some stuff around yet again!!
The top square sheet is a 1000mmx1000mm board that i was going to use for my spoiler board.
I was thinking of making this up like my microjig system, a pattern of dove tailed rebates to create a flexible hold down grid.
I appreciate i can't use the clamps as per the image
So, its a tight fit, but i can squeeze it in -
Time to go and purchase some 4x2 framing timber to make a good solid sturdy frame with plenty of braces.
It will also make me a large lower storage area. I was also thinking of having a large pull out drawer underneath for the electronics and laptop.
Another image of my workshop, Where i eat sawdust Doddy!!

An update on my build.
So took the mock up down, purchased 40mtrs of 75mmx45mm redwood and started the build
Will carcass the sides out with 22mm as well and it already weighs a tonne.
Then some shaker style panel doors and a large drawer/pull out shelf to put all the electrics - will update as it goes along
Oh, for anyone with eagle eyes, the floor runs out back to front, but is dead on square and level!!
