    Industrial Sewing Counter, Pt 2 (24 pics)

    In "Industrial Sewing Counter, Pt 1," I showed you how I prefabricated most of a project for a friend's sewing business in my workshop. In this thread, using the same photo essay format, I'll document the on-site final assembly phase.

                The Industrial Sewing Counter has been in service for about a month now, and my friend is delighted with the way it turned out. As for myself, I walked away from the job fairly satisfied. There were a few niggling details that didn't turn out quite as well as I'd hoped ... some due to the nature of the materials, most due to mistakes on my part. Still, I was pleased with what I was able to give my friend for a total materials cost of only about $200.

                Thank you very much for looking!

                  Very nice! As a matter if fact you gave me some more ideas for the a frame to go around my cabinet saw for the outfeed and extension.

                    Great work and excellent tutorial!

                    I can't believe you did M&T on all of those!

                        Looks great!!! It's hard to imagine that it's only 2X4's and OSB.

                          Great project, Larry. Well planned and well implemented. You certainly made that 2-by shine!

                              Great job and pictures, looks beautiful, your friend must be very pleased from the results (and the price).

                              I was thinking; yesterday, I went to sleep after I saw part I. This morning I woke up and part II is finished, if we just could make it so fast...looks like a miracle.

                              BTW, my Hebrew name is Nissim which means Miracles, but I'm still waiting for one to happen.
                              The Jews are celebrating now the Hanukkah holidays that according to the tradition a big miracle happened.....but that was 2000 years ago...

                              Thank you for sharing, it was very interesting for me.
