2X4 Workbench - Multi Drawer

The design and structure of this workbench is based on the one below but was modified to incorporate lots of drawer space.  This is the design that I ultimately used to build my workbench during my "workshop recreation" effort.  The construction notes and photos for this workbench can be seen in my "Projects" page.

Miter Saw Cabinet

I designed and made this cabinet in April of 2013 as part of my workshop "recreation".  I designed this cabinet from several ideas that I found on the web, taking what I thought were a mix of good functional design ideas. The cabinet has collapsible side wings as a space saving design.   The construction notes and photos for this cabinet can be seen in my "Projects" page.

Miter Saw Stand

Here’s a work station that I built for a miter saw that I recently purchased.  The bed and extensions can be removed in one piece from the base stand.  I kept the stand and wings light by using ¾” pine so that it would be light and movable. 

Outfeed Table

I designed and made this table in March of 2013 as part of my workshop "recreation".  I designed the table to be multi-functional as an out feed for the table saw, storage space and an additional work and assembly table.  The construction notes and photos for this table can be seen in my "Projects" page.

Tool Chest - 6 Drawer Cabinetmaker
