This downdraft table is poorly constructed with poor materials. The sides and bottom is of MDF board with rather crude joints -- one of the corner joints came apart during shipment. I had to glue it back together. The top is just a piece of peg board that sits on rabbets of the side panels. You have to put a piece of non-slip material (very wrinkled from the shipment) on top of the peg board. The peg board falls out everytime I move the table (heavy because of the MDF boards) since the peg board is not fastened to the base in anyway. The dust collector connector just pushes into a hole in the base. The whole table costs about $12 in material to make. To charge so much for such low quality in both material and workmanship is ridiculous!

My neighbor bought one of these tables as his shop is actually in a spare bedroom. It arrived in sad shape, two of the corners had come apart and we had to glue and clamp it back together. It works ok but is pretty heavy and as mentioned before the top is not fastened to the carcass. This problem was easily fixed with some glue and screws. Don't know where the idea of the cloth screen came from, it just clogs up and hampers the vac's performance. It works ok now, but I think I will build my own. I think I can build one for the cost of shipping this one.

This is one of those accessories so obvious that I'm emabarassed not to have had one until now. This will really save your nose - its a nice wide work surface - really helps keep your work area clean
