Completed miter saw bench.

Project by stanleywc posted 528 days ago 2589 views 14 times favorited 13 comments Add to Favorites Watch

These are shots of my mostly completed miter bench. It has a tempered hard board top and is edged with poplar. The out feed table has a left to right tape measure and uses the shop made stop that is shown in the picture. I am still planning on adding two shallow drawers on each side, one above the roll around cabinet and one over the fridge. These will hold drafting supplies and hardware. I also am planning on building a hood for the miter saw to help with the dust collection when I find the time.

I’m jealous already…wishing that I had that much wall space to dedicate to a miter saw and also very nice that you have the radial all worked into your project as well : )

This is great! I wish I had room for one.

By the way, I’m thinking that watching that TV while you use that saw probably would not be a very good idea. <g>

Yeah, Looks familiar. I have one like it in my shop. I had to make a few changes to make it work with my miter saw. That Norm is a pretty smart fella. I really like the stop. It looks like a real improvemet over a wooden one.
