I don't have a pic but mine looks like a machined piece of metal but MDF color.
Thanks Guys. Just making sure I was doing it right.
all you are doing is peeling off the paper surface by several thousandths to allow a better airflow thru the mdf.
I realize that this post is several years old, but I'm getting ready to prepare for my vacuum table. Do I need to surface both sides? Is there a routine for surfacing the spoilboard?
Included with the Bot was a board surfacing bit.
I found the procedure for flattening the table. I'l do both faces.
