That looks like very efficient use of space! I like it.

It is! Our shed is tiny so I have to make the most of it. Building a bigger one this summer though :D

What a beaut. PDF is clutch.

That looks great.

That looks awesome. I may have to tackle that some day.

[–] Thavron@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

Thanks! It's a very manageable build and easily customizable to your saw/needs.

That looks great!

That is great! Will check the sketchup file. I have designed my own workbench but it still has some flaws. Mainly with the top not being able to clamp something.

So cool. I am envy.

Thank you for sharing this amazing project (esp. the plans). I'm without space for such a dope bench right now (have no garage, and have 0 tools), but I saved it all anyway for when the dream can grow. 😝

Haha, that's the spirit!

Game changer to have that additional outfeed handy. What are you doing for dust collection?

My shop vac is beneath the table saw. If you look closely, the middle level is open in the center, so the shop vac easily attaches to the saw and I can reach it without problem to turn it on or off.
