Woodworking for the tall man

This raises it up an inch, and you can roll the TS around the shop.

I need more than an ince, but I have seen similar setups that add perhaps 4 or 5 inches.

Thanks for the link.

See:

I get TONS of spam offering to both add inches and drop them, depending of the location.

I put a wooden frame between the stand and saw cabinet on my contractor's saw. It has long holes bored through it where the stock bolts go. I got some 6" replacement bolts and it worked fine.

I ended up taking the thing out though. I like having the table lower. I'm only 6'4" though, so your "problem" may be bigger than mine :)

Another alternative would be to build a nice cabinet with doors and drawers and bolt the stand onto that.

I am 6' 6". I built a table to set my contractor saw on with a 30 inch extention table to the right and flush with the saw top. It is around 44" high. I also built a work table of about the same height. The 44" is one inch short of my elbow when standing up. My jointer is of standard height. Scott

Interesting, I simple pallet. I have some out back, perhaps I'll give them a try.

For my TS I built a mobile stand which raises it 2". I built stands for my bandsaw & drillpress that raise those to a comfortable height. I don't like bending over. I'm 6' 2.5"
