2. Table Setup

Parts Needed

Instructions

Crossbeams Assembly

1. Lay the Y-axis rails on the floor with the stickers facing up, in the correct orientation as noted by the stickers. 

Y-rail Left Short           Y-rail Right Long

Y-rail Left Long            Y-rail Right Short

2. Rotate or flip the Y-rails so that the racks and the linear rails face outwards.  

3. We will work on the front half of the table first, using the Left Long and Right Short rails.  

Move the other rails to the side while you work on the front half. Make sure to keep their orientation. 

4. Lay out four (4) crossbeams between the 2 Y-rails. Orient the flange of the crossbeam so that it is pointed toward the table joint end of the Y-rails (where the linear rails and rack ends are staggered).

❗You will notice that there is one crossbeam that looks different, it has a metal bracket on it. Do not use this crossbeam until the next video, Joining the Tables.

‼️Depending on whether you’re doing default or joinery configuration, you will need to install the front crossbeam it at a different location, noted by the stickers. 

5. Place the four (4) crossbeams onto the reference edge of one of the Y-rails, then loosely install M5-20mm XL SHCS into the crossbeam holes, three (3) at each crossbeam.

Move to the other side, and loosely install the screws.

Then finish fastening on both sides, using the supplied hex key, to avoid stripping the holes. Ensure that the crossbeams are contacting the Y-rail reference edge on both sides. 

Initial Table Leg and Feet Install

1. Remove the top hex nut from the leveling foot. Insert the threaded stud of the foot through the hole on the leg from the bottom, then reinstall the top hex nut over the hole, loosely securing the foot. You will need to adjust the nuts in a future step when leveling the table. Repeat for the remaining seven (7) feet.

2. On a table leg, loosely install four (4) M6-14mm button head screws and four (4) M6 twist-in T-nuts on the top row of holes on the flange of the leg. The twist-in T-nuts will be on the inside face of the table leg flange. Repeat this on another table leg, but mirrored, so you have a left and right leg. Prepare the remaining table legs in the same way, so you have pairs of mirrored legs.

3. Place the two legs at the crossbeam closest to the table joint. The T-nuts from the legs should slip into the T- slot of the crossbeam and Y-rails. 

❗If you are building in the  joinery configuration, install table legs on the other face of the crossbeam. This is noted by the sticker. You will need to flip the T-nuts and M6 screws on the flanges to make this work. You only need to do this once, for this set of legs. 

 

Initial Leg Support Install

1. Grab the X-axis leg support. There are 2 smaller holes on one face, and 2 larger clearance holes on the opposite face. Securely install this leg support between the two (2) legs so that the clearance holes face the table joint.

  • For default, bottom out at the corner, aligning with inner-most holes.
  • For joinery, offset slightly from the corner, aligning with outer holes.

Use four (4) M5-16mm SHCS to fully secure the X-axis leg support at each leg.

 

2. With a second person, flip the table backward,  on the end opposite of the table joint. Do not flip the table on the table joint end or it will cause serious damage.

3. Slide the table forward. Then use a stool to prop this leg-less, unsupported end up. This will be the front of the machine. Add foam or a soft cushion to raise the end a bit higher, to install table legs easier.

Finishing Up the Front Half

1. Bring another pair of table legs, and assemble onto the front end in the default configuration, regardless if you are doing joinery. Secure the M6 fasteners to attach the legs onto the table.

2. Grab another X-axis leg support.  Orient the leg support so that the clearance hole faces the front of the table. Use four (4) M5-16mm SHCS to fully secure the X-axis leg support on the corner of each leg, using the inner holes.

3. Loosely install the Y-axis leg support extrusion between the X-axis leg supports,  first installing one (1)  M5-20mm XL screw on each side, then adding the remaining M5-20mm XL screws for a total of four (4). Then fully tighten using the Allen key.  

4. Use four (4) M6-14mm BHCS to secure one (1) Y-axis end plate, at the left and right front ends of the table.  

5. Install a bump stop on each of the Y-axis end plates, facing the back of the table, using one (1) M5-10mm SHCS each.

Back Half Assembly

1. Repeat table build for the back half of the table, using only the default configuration steps, even if you are doing joinery configuration. Ensure your Right Long and Left Short Y-rails are oriented correctly from the beginning. 

2. Finally, carefully bring the two halves together so the linear rail and rack on each table half are facing each other. Leave a few inches gap. We will clean and align them properly in the next steps.
