Make awesome tool stands!
Those little bench stands with two winders that you can clamp stuff between or on using the plastic bench dogs.
I have 2 and use one as a stand for my Disc/belt sander and the other one for my Compound Mitre Saw.
Since I don't have a dedicated workshop and have to move things around, these stands are ideal and fairly sturdy. Not recommended for Scroll Saws though or porbably several other tools that produce excessive vibration...
I clamp the tools down with a few G-clamps.
Just a suggestion if anyone is looking for a small stand for any of their tools. At $25 each, you can't go wrong! especially when some machine stands are flogged off for a couple hundred dollars and aren't much different.
Plus, you can also use them as saw horses and for a variety of other handy uses.
Can get them from most hardware shops.
