Project Information

Just finished this Caddy/Station to help with my cramped garage. I downloaded the plans from Wood Magazine and added some extra tray supports so that my miter saw would be at the correct height for the outfeed wings to help when I'm cutting crown.

This little station will be a help with storage but since it is on wheels i can move it outside when cutting and not make such a huge mess in the garage…and get sawdust on my wife's car :)

The plans called for birch instead of plywood. I also used 1/4" plywood instead of mdf….I couldn't get it near my house and since I travel a lot time was a valuable commodity. All in all I'm pleased with it. Being a beginner, every project proves a learning opportunity. I had to modify the wings a little because my tablesaw is wider than what the plans allowed.

Very nice design indeed! It's got everything going for it as a Multi Purpose Unit. Well Done!

You may no longer consider yourself a beginner … you have advanced and learned, with a very nice project.

Oh, by the way, I used to use the leaf blower to blow out the garage and to blow off the wife's car when I was through for the day … Never could get her to use it to do the dusting in the house though …

You just need to incorporate a fence into the front of that and you have doubled your table saws capacity and it will work for the router too.

Nice job on the build.

Thanks for the comments guys - in one of the pics I gave the router fence up but it is hard to see since I didn't have the router attached
