How much floor space does the Copy Carver require?
A- The Copy Carver built according to the plan dimensions will need an area 6′ x 6′ to use the machine, leaving you plenty of room to work. Storing it requires 6′ x 3′ of floor space, or the rolling carriage can be lifted off, folded up and hung on a wall while the table can be leaned against the wall as well. With spare floor space being at a premium in most workshops the Copy Carver was designed to store easily. I placed four eye bolts in the corners of my work table and when I am done using mine I fold up the swing box, hang it on the wall then with four pulleys fastened to the trusses of my shop ceiling and some spare rope I pull my table up out of the way into the ceiling. Leaving room to still park the family car.
