Torsion Boxes are Awesome!

I build a torsion box...to build a torsion box! The dining table that I'm working on, has an apron with internal drawers...and everything needs to be extremely accurate for the pivoting drawers to work correctly. Solution...build an assembly table that is dead flat, strong and rigid...aka, a torsion box. Now, if you don't have an outfeed table or other large surface to build on, you will need a series of straight boards, aluminum channel, etc. to create a flat workspace. Use a level, laser, string or all of the above, shim these "runners" to make the surface dead on balls accurate and flat. Add a couple of sheets onto that, then build your torsion box frame. Lots of ways to do things...the end results are what count! Check out my eBooks here: Tricks of the Trade Volume 1 https://ramonvaldezfinefurniture.com/...
