Don't Forget the Jig... Built-in Shop Drawers (New Sanding Station)

My old tool bench from the basement has offered up its last part of being recycled into something else. This time it's plywood becomes a lesser version of its former self but with years worth of experience in the design gained and applied.

I think it's crazy how much weight those drawer slides can hold. That was a lot of paint cans. Great video!

Great project. I’m a sucker for shop furniture.

Love the channel, great projects!! Learn something every time I watch your videos. I recommend your channel to everyone I talk to. I wish I could do one tenth of what you do (I can't do wood!!). Thanks for the excellent videos.

They way that you figured out how to assemble the case was brilliant! I love the scrap in the vise to clamp the side to.

It looks good. I think drawers are essential in my shop! And I think people who hate drawers are wrong.

Great looking quick and fairly easy project. I'm sure that you'll get a lot more use of it than the basement bench. - Chris

I think of the angle tool stands as a waste in a few ways. No storage, in a place where the tool itself has stuff to store somewhere else. Then the price if it’s included or ‘free’ is another waste because it has nowhere to go. Even at a low cost to buyer I’d prefer it optional. I think bandsaws are the biggest culprits and the final working height usually wrong for tall people anyway.

Most of my stationary power tools are used and I ditched stands to make box cabinets. Even on a jointer with the chute directly under it I made a cabinet with drawers. Top of it has a chamber to exit side with a drawer to the other side. Craftsman table saw had wretched wheels on angle legs. The wheels didn’t roll and made the legs sort of buckle and dance as you moved it. It’s very close to the exact saw you have. Built a box and put larger wheels. Infinity times better.

Rant end. Thank you.

I really like your channel. I’ve made 3 of you folding kitchen helpers for various grandkids. I think your middle sander is your diy one but what brands are the other two and do you like them or if you don’t, what would you replace them with? I hope this doesn’t make your viewer comments review!

Did you modify your table saw or the fence? I've had two table saws and both of them have had unreliable fences, making it hard to do precision work with a roaming fence.

Nice project. Could do without the blasphemy
