Where does everyone get their forms? I'm liking the forms. I've been using the plywood with movable posts, but the forms look more sound.

Steve -Yes I mount my molds on this stand. I designed it so I could glue linings on one side then filp and glue the other without waiting

I have six different molds so I made it ajustable

This is how I mount them

I also found it useful for gluing tops and backs.


I also learned I can "drive the bus" on it!!


Art - I get my molds from Home Depot

What a stupendiously wonderful idea! I'm gonna adapt my molds so I can create something similar.

Many thanks!

Thanks guys, I got the idea from the old Stew-Mac flip top work beach plan I saw in the catalog years ago (I think it's discontinued now) the idea was to have a couple of projects straped to either side of the bench top or something like that. I didn't think a flip top work bench was something I woud be interested in but it got me to thinkin'......

Hesh, What a great shop!! No wasted space there!!   I wish my shop would stay so neat and clean!!

Brent--many thanks!
That's exactly what I had in mind, and no doubt makes your system much more efficient.

Again, thanks for taking the time to post those.
Like others said, I'm filing these away for future use.

Steve
