The only power tools I have are a jigsaw and a drill, so I have to keep things fairly simple.
Or use this as an excuse to buy some new toys. :mrgreen:

acabtp said:engineering note on your knee brace's diagonal member: this piece will take a compression load while under power, but you used a piece of flat stock. flat stock is strong under tension, but not very strong in compression as it will bow to one side or the other. you should replace it with a piece of angle stock or T channel which will be much stronger. it will fit right into your design. otherwise looks good!
