I am currently building a stand for my Nova 1624. I have a 1/4" thick steel table top and I am replacing the wooden legs and substructure. I am considering building hollow legs out of 3/4" plywood then filling them with sand. I am also building a shelf across the bottom like a hollow core door and filling that with sand. Besides the extra weight, does anyone see a benefit to the sand such as vibration dampening? I also plan on anchoring it to the cinder block wall and concrete floor in my shop. Any thoughts?
Thanks
Ben
