[QUOTE="pbmcauliffe, post: 1318617, member: 16134"] Really only cosmetic, but why are the top and bottom plates different? The flat sides of the tab look odd and the big holes in the top plate reduce overall strength. After looking at various failed link mounts of this style over the years, I have made all of mine with the joints as close to the mounting side as I can to reduce leverage and have no more look at me cut outs and holes that can reduce overall strength & rigidity. The table will definitely change how you build things, hardest part for me is keeping track of the over 300 part files I have done up. [/QUOTE]
