Hey Greg
looks great this is the place to find these Ideas well done.

-- Jim from Heirloom Woodshop Southern Oregon

nice utility /work station/shelving .
great idea .
my self ,
i would probably make drawers on one end ,
and shelves on the other ,
that meet halfway.
that way they are allways accesable ,
without raising the side .
good idea with the magnets !

Great idea, I would add the drawers to both sides if me, and great use of the magnets by the way. This is to use with your table saw also?

Greg,
Really nice work!
Question for you…
Why did you have your shelves under the extension instead of on the sides where you could get at it with the table open? Was that a design element or was it a strength element? I’m curious.
Thanks,

The reason for the shelves under the wings are twofold. One, where it will sit in my garage normally would only allow access to one small side anyway. Two, I wanted longer and shallower storage space for the large number of tool cases I plan to put in it. Having to raise the wings to get to the items is inconvenient, but when I’m working in the garage I’ll have it out anyway so not a big deal. Of course, you could build it the other way if it suits you. I may even draw-up some Sketchup plans for that and post them.

I already have an outfeed table, so I did not size it to fit my table saw. I merely sized it to maximize space and top size. The top is just a couple inches shy of a full 4’x8’ sheet.

If anyone is interested, I drew an alternate Sketchup file with some drawers on the front and back as well as a lower shelf on the sides:

You can get it at the original link in the post. I debated adding a center support in the lower side shelf for support but I don’t think it would be needed.

Great idea and a nice shop addition and good of you to give credit to the origin.

I’m glad you modified the cart I did for your shop. I think you built it alot faster than me. Good work with the sketchup as well. Do you use it to generate part list?

tomjboyle… Yes, I use Sketchup to draw-up my parts list as well. I usually build it first using groups and components; then I tear it apart and get the measurements. I then create a material list in Excel and then go back into Sketchup and figure-out the cutlist.

Nice project.

This is the joy of being a member of Lumberjocks the sharing of ideas and projects. I have many projects I am going to duplicate that other fine craftsman and women have gracious and proud enough to share with us all. Well done and thank you.

That’s how it goes. You see something, make it and improve it. Nothing wrong with that.
