Increasing the Capacity of a Horizontal/Vertical Bandsaw

[rgsparber]

I have been using Mike Cox's folding bandsaw table for over a year with great results. It goes into position quickly when I'm running vertical and then flips up for horizontal cuts.

Recently I ran into the classic problem of having the stock hit the bandsaw frame before my cut was over. I then realized yet another reason to really like Mike's design. By tilting the table up 45°, I was able to increase capacity by 40%.
