    Default Table Saw magnetic storage

    Nothing original about this - should have thought of it earlier. I have a bunch of rare earth disk magnets waiting to become drawer-keeper-closed-thingamabobs, so decided to use a few to stick the new saw's tools to the chassis. Quick and easy.

    Great idea; works well. A couple of refinements:
    • If you put the rare earths on the inside of the apron then they are invisible, magic holders. Eliminates risk of magnet sticking to tool when you go to use it.
    • You can attach thin non-magnetic objects by jamming between two rare earths.


    Mate has epoxied rare earths to a shadow board - no screws needed - works well.
