Doug Joseph (Design8Studio) Full-Sheet LowRider 2 "Build on a Budget"

OK, I’m finally coming back to provide the table design plans, and I’m making progress on being able to provide lots of photos, and perhaps even some videos can be provided.

Table for LowRider 2
Design by Doug Joseph - Design8Studio.com
3D design made using SketchUp Pro & outputted from SketchUp Layout

Here I am attaching a PDF exported from SketchUp Pro Layout, and JPG images that were also exported from there.

PDF (linked from my design studio site, due to this site’s restrictions on file size):

…And here are high-res JPGs outputted (same as the pages of the PDF):










…Also it dawned on me that the PDF/layout does not show much of the rolling cart base. So here are a couple of screen shots that give a bit more info on that part:


PS: re. those matching upper and lower frame sets (with “cross beams,” all made of 2x4s) - I actually built my table with only the lower one of those frames being a full set. The upper only had the two 3’-9" spans at each end (front and rear), and none of the rest of the upper frame set. I initially thought it would be overkill, given the torsion boxes. However, even torsion boxes can flex, especially when made of OBS, and I later wished I had made the upper frame. I may yet go back and add it. Thus, I modified the plans to show it.
