[SML] Folding workbench/chop saw station....

[Jon Ares]

So I've been trying to figure out something I've always wanted for
home... I have a small 2-bay garage, with one bay for the wood
shop.... along the wall (about 10 feet available) I want a workbench
(with my chop saw on it as well) but with a fold-down top at the same
height as the chop saw - and the work area of the workbench lowers out
of the way automagically, all level-like.... and when I'm done with
the chop saw, I can fold the top back up and have my workbench exposed
again.  I have dreamt of this, and POW - I find this video, where this
guy has been working on the very same thing!

But... the video is not really about the bench he's working on...
(great video, but the bench is a prop, not the subject) - and he
doesn't have a video, or drawings, of the design/project.

Anyone done anything like this? My brain isn't so good on machining
the physics, but drawings help my brain a lot.  I've pored over "kits"
for murphy beds with level desks, but they're expensive kits, and not
really what I want - so they really haven't been that helpful, in a
reverse-engineering manner.

I'm looking to build two of these - one that's maybe 5 feet on one
side of my chop saw, and another that's about 3 feet on the other
side.

Thoughts? Resources?

 - Jon
