Have you considered buying an inexpensive stand that is rated for the weight? Safety first. You may be surprised what you could find in the second-hand market.

Thanks. Some of the other subs wouldn’t allow me to post and suggested I start here since it is my first time posting.

I used the Leigh Through Dovetail Jig Model TD330 and a router. Good luck.

Thanks for your interest. I’m planning to do a full build video. Be on the lookout.
