Hi All
My book came today Just had a quick flick through but doesnt seen to be much about the chassis table Like how many legs did people put on there bench. And what height did people build their bench at. Thanks Stephen |

Hi I built my table about 900mm high and 4 legs make the top from the thickest sheet of ply you can get and still brace the underside to eliminate the chance of it sagging time spent bracing and getting it right will save massive headaches later
good luck |

Pick your wood carefully as getting a straight piece will save you time planing and truing. 1" thick MDF as a table top is my recommendation but don't get it wet. Also use lots of wood glue.

I'd be tempted to keep your eyes open for a steel tubular table or something similar and clamp the wood on top - alternatively make the top of the table only and mount it on steel trestles.
The reason for this is that once the chassis is made and tacked strongly together it is very useful to be able to get at it from all angles at a reasonable height. Here's my build table (and the project before my Roadster):
