What happens here

It's important to consider the structural integrity of your workbench when installing The Tool Swing. The bench will need to be sufficiently thick and sturdy to support the weight and forces applied to tools mounted using this system. While not excessively more demanding than a top-mounted setup, a robust bench is crucial for stability.

Goal: Understand the structural demands on the workbench for optimal Tool Swing performance.

So my question is, is like, how thick does your bench need to be to be able to mount it to the bottom of your bench? Well, it's probably going to have to be a little half to your than what you would have if you were just mounted on top, but not much. I had a lot of people mounting them under any kind of work bench. Right.
