Hoisting heavy sheets of plywood and MDF onto my tablesaw is not my idea of workshop fun. That’s why I devised this pivoting rack— and began storing my sheet stock vertically.

The rack’s frame fits around the two base uprights and pivots on bolts. A cleat at the bottom keeps the sheet from sliding off.

After installing a sheet on the rack, I simply tip it down toward the saw. A horizontal stop with adjustable feet holds the rack at tablesaw height. The feet are oriented upside down, so they thread into the top of the stop. –Miles Clay

    Regarding the article Plywood Tipper, June 10th, I am wondering if there is any way I can reach this person. I note he has a General table saw, I also have one. Unfortunately I am in the process of canableizing it because of a belt that tips the blade is no longer made. Maybe he has a newer setup I could copy?

    Thanks,
