Anti-Slip Dust-Collection Table

Here’s a pair of sanding helpers that work great
together. The rug pad provides a soft anti-slip
surface.The Peg-Board, combined with the holes
in the rug pad, allows dust to be sucked
down through the table.My shop vacuum
provides plenty of airflow.

I bought the wood for my sanding table at
the local home center for about $20. I found
the anti-slip rug pad at the same store in
the carpet department for $6. The
pad was bigger than my table,
but was easily cut to size
with a scissors.
