About the Standard Tables
Complete your workshop or office with a V-Slot table! Rigid, adjustable, and easy to modify, this table can serve any function your mind can come up with.
Want to upgrade your table in the future? With V-Slots' modular design, you can increase or decrease the size of your table with a simple purchase of extra V-Slot! Use the old V-Slot for a new project or extra bracing/shelves!
V-Slot furniture is every solution you need for your mod-able work space. Flat pack furniture only allows you a single solution for a specifically sized space with any adjustments made risking the integrity of the product. With V-slot furniture you can easily shorten, lengthen, raise, lower or add to any existing workpiece with a few brackets and a couple extra lengths of extrusion.
Pre-Assembly notes
We recommend that you read through the whole assembly guide before beginning the build, as this enables you to get a rough idea of how it all goes together. Before starting each step make sure you have studied the drawings and fully understand the instructions.
When attaching parts, if a part is requiring significant force to attach, stop, take it off, re-read the instructions and try again. Do not over tighten screws as you may strip the thread or head.
Tip: it is highly recommended that you read and use the columns / drawings provided to help you assemble.
How To Build A Table:
Building a Standard Table is easy! Essentially it breaks down into three steps:
- Make a square frame.
- Add table legs.
- Add feet or wheels.
1. Frame Assembly
For the frame construction, you will need:
Item | Description | SKU | QTY |
1 | 2060 Linear Rail – 1000 | LR-2060-1000 | 4 |
2 | In-Out Corner Bracket – 60mm | BRAC-IOCNR-60 | 4 |
3 | Universal L Brackets – Triple | BRAC-L3 | 8 |
4 | Sliding T-Nut | HARD-TNUT-SLIDING-M5 | 48 |
5 | M5 Cap Head Bolts – 8MM | BOLT-M5-CAP-008-1PC | 24 |
6 | M5 Button Head Screws – 8MM | SCREWS-M5-BH-8-1 | 24 |
Tip: Set aside these components for your build before starting! It is recommended that you use the drawings and instructions provided to help you assemble.
1.1 Outside Corners
Step 1: Put two 2060 linear railings on a flat surface in a roughly 90° angle to each other (1) slot one sliding T-Nut (5) into each of the v-slot grooves as displayed in the below drawings. Make sure not to tip the opposite end up or your T-Nuts will fall out.
Step 2: Once you’ve added the sliding T-Nuts (5) into the 2060 rail (1) add the In-Out Corner Bracket – 60mm (3) and use the M5 Cap Head Bolts – 8MM (6) to hold the bracket into place.
Tip: Use another Allen key to push the T-Nuts in allignment with the IOCNR-60 holes.
1.2 Inside Corners
Step 1: Line up the Universal L Brackets – Triple (L3 Bracket) (4) with the previously placed T-Nuts (5).
Step 2: Insert the M5 Button Head Screws – 8MM (7) into the L3 Bracket (4) as seen below.
Tip: Lightly tighten one bolt on each of the L3 Brackets to keep them from sliding.
Step 3: Repeat this process with the other 3 corners until you get a frame like the example shown below.
2. Adding the legs
For this you will need:
Item | Description | SKU | QTY |
2 | 4040 Linear Rail | LR-4040 | 4 |
5 | Sliding T-Nut | HARD-TNUT-SLIDING-M5 | 48 |
7 | M5 Button Head Screws – 8MM | SCREWS-M5-BH-8-1 | 48 |
It is easiest to add the legs to the frames by setting the frames upright on a flat surface in front of you and placing the legs inside. Use clamps or supports to keep the frames from falling over!
Step 1: Slide a 4040 Linear Rail (2) into the same corner of both frames so that it sits flush against the 2060 Linear Rail (1).
Step 2: Slide 6 T-Nuts (5) into the 4040 Linear Rail (2) as seen in the top left image below.
Step 3: Screw the M5 Button Head Screws – 8MM (7) through the Universal L Brackets – Triple (4) into the 4040 Linear Rail (2).
Step 4: Repeat for each corner until you have 4 legs attached.
3. Wheels or Adjustable Feet
For this step, you will need:
Item | Description | SKU | QTY |
8 | M5 Low Profile Screws – 25MM | SCREWS-M5-LP-25-1 | 16 |
9 | Foot Mounting Brackets | BRAC-FOOT | 4 |
10 | Wheels or Adjustable Feet | BUN-FOOT | 4 |
Step 1: Line up your Foot Mounting Bracket (8) to the bottom 4040 Linear Rail threaded holes (2).
Step 2: Screw in the M5 Low Profile Screws – 25MM (7) to the 4040 Linear Rail (2).
Step 3: Screw in your Foot or Wheel (10) to the Foot Mount Bracket (9).
Final Step: Stand your table upright, tighten any loose bolts and adjust to a level height! You have completed your Standard Table build!
