Construction of the air table
We usually get this construction done in the workshop, because they have better drills and can use a UV reacting glue that makes the construction much easier. If you do not have access to a workshop, this documentation should lead you through the process.
Safety instruction
The upper part of the air table should be screwed and the lower part only glued. In the case of malfunction with the air pressure, the lower part will break. That limits the risk of injuries.
