Abstract

Abstract A worktable relating to the act of simplifying the handling of doors while machining of hinge and lock recesses and conveying same to its installation location by one man. This device allows the door to be placed in a vertical position on its edge while machining one edge then with the use of a counterbalancing spring (which keeps one from lifting the entire weight of the door) turn the door to a horizontal position, reverse sides through the use of a turntable, and then place the door back in a vertical position to machine the other edge. After machining is accomplished, the door can be rolled on this device to its installation location.
