Our newly acquired shopbot is being moved to a place with a lot less space, and we came up with the idea of potentially using under the table to store large stock before it was used. I wanted to make sure that there wasn't any safety concerns with this that we are missing.
We have a standard 4'x8' PRS Alpha and don't have a vacuum table or anything, so under the table is pretty clear. We mounted our control box to the 'front' of the shopbot, so we would be able to slide boards under from the left side.
If we did decide to move forward with this, we are planning on making some ribs that run across the bottom of the machine, mating with the horizontal supports that run along the bottom. This is to provide more support more materials that sag more than others.
Thanks for any help!
