I have been needing to make a table for the Carbide 3D Shapeoko Pro XXL I just purchased and finally got around to it.
I thought I would share some notes, photos, video walkthrough, and the 3D model in case anyone else was looking for some ideas or had some methods to improve.
For the build I considered open vs closed, wood vs metal, and what kind of storage and dust collection was necessary.
After looking at the 80/20 Aluminum Extrusion options pretty thoroughly I decided to just make it out of wood and call it a day and about 2.5 trips to Home Depot.
This turned out great with the leveling feet and is more than level for what I need to be tackling.
I have made one before and I must say that painting it white and adding under lighting really makes things nice. Mounting an on/off switch for the entire system and one for the router/vacuum has been great.
Also the laptop table is nice. Make sure to get one that is stiff enough so when you accidentally lean too much on it the computer doesn’t fall to the ground.
Use these files as you wish but with the understanding that the are “as is” and you will likely need a 3D program, like Fusion 360, to open them.
Thanks for checking it out!
