Re: Calling all benchtop warriors
I'm still a little new to woodworking and like so many others, space is at a premium. My first goals are to organize my garage and add portability to my bench top tools.
posted: 7:53 am on May 13thI've mounted my Delta bench saw (& stand) on wheels plus added drawer on one side and blade storage on the other.
I'm working on a caddy, also with drawers, for my (older) drill press. Next will be a caddy for the Ryobi planner I picked up. Last summer I built a work bench a finally mounted the vises on it. When I need to use the bench grinder,mounted on a small piece of plywood + a cleat, I clamp it up; when done it stores nicely on a shelf.
Since I was a kid I wanted one of those Black & Decker Workmates! I broke down and picked up one of the early models. I use that for the Sears router & table, Delta sander, scroll saw and anything else that comes to mind. I have plans to build a roll around cart and tall roll around unit that holds 4 tools (miter saw, scroll saw, sander, etc) that are mounted on a base - which fits onto the shorter, roll around cart. The tools not in use are stored in the taller unit. I'll finally have a proper stand for my miter saw!
The Craftsman 12" band saw is on a stand without wheels. I have my eyes peeled for a set of casters for it. What I haven't figured out yet is how I'll make a stand (on wheels?) for the older 6" joiner.
