    Tablesaw Accessory Storage

    I needed some storage for my tablesaw accessories. Right now, some of it is is in a drawer in the bench by the tablesaw, my dado stack is hung on the slatwall on the other side of the workbench and my Incra Miter 5000 sits on the floor leaned up against whatever is in the area and gets knocked over from time to time and then needs to be recalibrated. Finally, my blades are on a rack on the wall, in another drawer on the other side of the shop, and hanging above the miter saw.

    I had a leftover sheet of prefinished maple plywood that had a big gouge in it and it has just been sitting in the sheet goods rack for nearly a decade and two shops. I threw this together last night and will build the drawers for it this week.

    It will sit under the wide extension for the table saw. I'll need to add six inch legs since it will straddle the stabilizer leg of my overarm dust collection. There will be plenty of room for the Miter 5000 to sit on top of it so I'll no longer be tripping over it, knocking it over ...

    Good project. Are you going to edge band the plywood case or have the drawer fronts hang over?
    just another brick in the wall...

      I plan on painting this with Rustoleum hammered metal epoxy which nicely covers the fact that I didn't bother to edge band. This is shop furniture after all. The drawer fronts will also overhang and will simply be slab fronts cut from a quarter sheet of 3/4 MDF. I built the drawers last night and got as far as gluing them up.
