This rolling cart is a great project for the shop. It’s made out four by fours, and 3/4’’ plywood for the top and bottom. And I also added a shelf made out of 3/4 pine, for more storage. I have my miter saw mounted to the cart, but it’s great for a benchtop sander, or if you just need another workbench. On the shelf I have a porter cable dovetail jig, and on the bottom shelf I have my air compressor. I also put locking casters on the bottom, so I can roll it wherever I need it. Make sure you use locking casters, you do not want it to move when your cutting a board, that could be dangerous. It’s a great project, you can build it in a few hours.
Thanks for reading,
AJ

Hey, how good are you with that dovetail jig? Like it? Probably a 4212? I almost bought one the other day, and one of the guys at the woodworkers guild is giving an instructional demonstration at a meeting next week. I’ll probably have one very soon. Perhaps you should do a review. Oh, nice cart by the way!

Thanks Jim, I wish I had a miter saw station to support longer boards. But this works for me, I might to a review on my dovetail jig. And yes, it is a 4212 PC. I’m pretty good at it, it takes a lot of testing on scrap boards to get the joints to fit thou.
Thanks for the comments,
AJ

AJ, nice cart to get organized. now you can work on two arms on the side of the cart that can fold up, to give you a longer surface to cut work on. this would fold flat to the side out of the way.
Have your say...
