Cutting Table

Photo 9

A diversion -- When visiting a Lancair builder to help him close out a wing, I noticed a really neat cut-off table for fiberglass bias-ply cutting. I made one for my shop (garage) but had to make it folding so I can use the space for otherstuff when not cutting glass. It is 4’x4’, with one corner cut off so you can reach the glass for cutting. The roll of fiberglass goes against the wall, you unroll it, and lay a straight-edge across the fiberglass. Markings on the table let you line it up, and know whether you are cutting 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10” wide strips without having to measure.
