Thread: pulled my finger out and got it built

As I have posted iv got to move. "hate moving' as my shed is also for the storage and transport of the house contents, there is a need to have a big clean up. pack tools, dump non useable items.

After the first part of the clean out, it came clear that my storage is lacking. Miter saw bench it was good at the start but it just doesn't work well, lots of problems. this is the photo of it cleaned out

Need for a new bench. Iv had 7@2 3.6*600*15mm melamine cover sheets stored in the small shed for about a year now from a project that didn't happen, lucky they were free. and I picked up a few more about 6 weeks ago. the first miter saw bench I built in the container worked for the time but understand there was problems, route dust extraction, storage, useable flat surface, and storage.

over the years I collected bit and pieces as we do, on the grounds of " that will come in handy " thus resulting in tools, screws, bolts and stuck in places all over the place, time to sort it all out before packing the house contents in.

old bench pulled out, I wont up load the all the cutting and building photos, but here is the carcass coming together.

you know I didn't think I had that many draw tracks, 28 draws on tracks, 7 draws in the kick strip for tools that don't get used a lot. the first set of 4 draws rows in the top part of the cabinet look like this
