Man, that what you you did there for your insane quality Miter saw was a piece of art of work. So clean, simple, elegant, modern, and more. Wow 👏🏼👏🏼

The shadow line on blades was the best upgrade I've ever seen on some new saws

Also wanted to add I got my first initial design ideas from Spencer with Inside Carpentry. You both do a great job. Thanks, Brian

This is by far one of the coolest and most useful builds I have ever seen! Amazing!

[petermacander]

You should market this well-made product. Make it adaptable to the most popular mitre saws. Many would find this product VERY USEFUL! I would love to buy one!

Dude! Brilliantly executed! I love the modification of the roller legs, and the way you made it compact for transport. 👌👌

This is amazing! One thing I’d add is a bubble level on each removable extension. Also to make them even more reliable as work/assembly table, you could add on the underside some glued cross beams and close the bottom to turn them into torsion boxes. It shouldn’t be a problem to move the legs and other jig holding features onto the bottom panel. The torsion box height could be less than the current side walls or you could make those walls taller such that the attached accessories on the underside can still technically be recessed and not get in the way of the dowel connection. This would add significant weight but would make them much more reliable!

It is exactly what I needed! Don't have enough space for miter station. Thanks, John!
Perfect as usual!

Hello, John. Nearly three years ago, I began building my workshop by following your build of your DIY Rigid vac-Duststopper dust collector, and now I'm back for this other essential shop accessory having just purchased your plans. Thank you so much for this. I spent this morning looking at some of the store-bought portable miter stands that cost from one to four thousand dollars! I'll enjoy building this one too!

That's a Great video! I'm glad I watched it. I'll probably watch it a few more times before I start on it. Big THANKS!
😇✌️

Thanks, John! I've been procrastinating building wings for my miter saw for some time. I've purchased your plans to give me the kick in the butt that I needed!

Well thought out design and I think you use your mitre station very similarly to the way I do. I will be using this as a model for my festool kapex on possibly a dewalt stand. Great job …thanks

Good video. I want to build long lightweight wings with a minimal amount of material, and this is a fantastic solution. I don't need the same mobility in my workshop, so I'll fasten the wings directly to the shop stand that the miter saw will be bolted to. It'll be easy enough to break down if I need to relocate. Thanks!

I made one similar about 2 years ago and put out a video as well. I use the DWX726 rolling miter stand with a Dewalt Miter saw. On my saw end I just slip the extension wings over the T-bar on the stand, then lock down the knob underneath. Since I made mine I added the T-tracks for my crown stop too. I made my crown stop so you could still see the angle scale on the saw. I like your addition of the dog holes and the T-track along the back for the stop. If I ever make another set I will use your idea of making the main table out of maple. I used pre-finished 3/4 birch plywood but it has peeled up in one spot where I caught it with a tool. I also like the heavy earth magnets you used for keeping the legs up during transport. Great job and high quality video.

I picked up the Rousseau dust hood for my 12" slider. Game changer for keeping the shop clean. I too keep my saw on a mobile cart so for me it was a necessary expense even though it's expensive

[MrSki-tyvm]

Just a freaking awesome video and thanks for taking out so much guess work

[carloscardona]

This is one of the best builds, description of the build, filming of the build and overall concept of the build that I’ve seen on YouTube in years. I instantly subscribed and trust me I rarely if ever subscribe. Kudos for your excellence and craftsmanship!!

[ryanalfano]

Extremely versatile, creative, and genius. Well done John.

[jimmydunn]

This is AWESOME! I have a similar mobile stand for my Miter Saw and have never liked the extension arms as there is always too much play in the leveling of the ends and more importantly with the "stop" feature on the ends. I have been wanting to come up with something like this since I got my stand and you covered all the bases! I especially like the compactness and how you added the storage details down to even having a magnet hold the knobs when stored away. I will definitely use the magnetic tape measure trick on some of my other jigs. I hate using the pun but "you hit the nail on the head" for me on this one!!!

Salut John, Magnifique réalisations, bonne continuation à plus JEAN.
