Just built mine straight from the plans! Ready to put it to use!
Hi guys
I'm so happy that I found this video. It's perfect Idea for my mitre saw station. Your solution with legs (beams) is absolutely fantastic and simple. Couldn't find similar idea. I'm glad I came across your video.
I have only one thing legs are from thick beams 95mm x 75mm and then I will use CLS beams 89mm x 38mm 2.4m long. In Europe guys it's much harder and expensive to do it at least in UK.
Once again thank you very much.
Well done!!!
Kind regards
😁
It always blows my mined how much great new looking SCRAP people making video's seen to just happen to have laying around!!
I followed this basic design with a few modifications to suit my needs. I made it 10’ long. I “cut out” a space on the bottom so I could fit a job box underneath on the infeed side. Then I went goofy and made the top out of two layers of 3/4” oak veneer plywood with 3/4” x 1 1/2” oak trim. It’s almost done. I fit it to my 35 year old Craftsman chop saw. (Can’t really call it a miter saw.). It will be easy to modify it for the new Bosch 12” axial saw I will be getting soon. Thanks!
Built my own version of this on lockdown , took a lot longer and loads of mistakes but all good learning - great video and thanks for the guide and helping build confidence that us newbies can make stuff like this 👍
Excellent video. Very informative with NO hiding tips. Thank you so much.
Thanks for showing the measurements. Gives me a starting point to work from
Thanks guys, just got a mitre saw for Father's Day in Australia and need a station to use it from. What a great first project for me, especially since I don't have a shop full of tools yet (I do have a drill and a jigsaw though! Yippee!)
Were there some lengths hidden by the tops on the colour coded plan you showed from your pc?
Thank you very much. I am going to make one for myself.
Nice work. For sure I'm going to make a miter saw station now. Thanks again.
Great video! I’ve viewed 10 videos. This is the one that will work for me as a beginner. Thank you!
Nice miter station, simple is always better! You all should definitely check out some amazon affiliate links, and link some stuff in your description
This is perfect. Thank you
Happy to help!
Outstanding job!
Good job I like the way it came out.
Color-coding was super-helpful!!
I built this very same station and I made a modification ... the front 2x4x27 inch piece I took it and laid it down so it’s flat and I didn’t screw the 2’x27” plywood to the station... this way if I want to take it outside to work I can just slide it out and go... also you said about making a dust collection hood for it... dust is a huge problem with my miter saw but I haven’t seen your hood yet plz let me know when you make it. I’m very interested in making one also thanks... great videos
I just finished mine today except for the fence. That middle section was kind of difficult but I finally got it square. Looking back I think I would have used my planer and jointer on the lumber being used.
That's awesome! Glad you got it to work out for you =)
Just started making a smaller version 400 + 800 +400mm for my table planer so i can use it for larger pieces of wood.
Loved the build, liked and subscribed
Awesome!!! Good job
Nice project I think I will build my self one to go in my new garage my brother and I built this summer.
That's awesome! Good luck
my next project thanks guys
Great job and nice video.
Simple but genius
I made a miter saw station. The design was very different, but I did the thing where you lay a level across the base of the saw to make sure the wings are perfectly flush with the saw's base. Worked great. Until about a month later, when everything seems to have shifted or warped or something. Woodworking is hard. The universe seems to conspire against you.
Nice and simple, good job. You might try using a 6ft. Level or straight edge to match saw deck with tables
Excellent I'll order my timber (lumber) asap....🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪👏👏👏
Nice project!! Nice electrical work too in your shop ;-)
Great work! Thanks for making this video!
Thanks for watching and encouraging us! 😊
Well, I know how much work it is to film, edit, and produce content. Im trying to get my own channel up off of the ground. Whenever I see content that is well produced and beneficial to me I think a quick thank you is the least that I can do!
Great vid, I'll be building this. Except I'm going to build the opening 36". So I can slide my 12" Bosch, to the back. Giving my self 10" fence out. Also so that I can clear with the handle, doing 60°. Handle comes out 6" on right, 3 on the left.
great build liked and subscribed
Awesome
My step son has a station very much like ours. The biggest changes, is that his miter say, folds down, and has a drop in top, so that it becomes a long work bench.
So I'm a bit new to this woodworking thing and I want to build this table. Does anyone see any problems with using MDF for the top horizontal board? I'm in love with that stuff LOL
Nice straightforward build. Is there a reason that you decided not to go with the full length 2x4 across the top of the back? Is the table still rigid enough?
Hey can you put the dimensions so I can build one that is pretty cool love it!!
I went off this design and my bench looks awesome!! Wish I could upload a pic some how to show! Thank you for the help!!
That's awesome! So glad you made it. Tagging us on Instagram is the best way if you're on that platform!
the blue in the planed lumber looks like pine to me. Seen many pine have that color.
any thought on castors or leveling feet?
Excelente 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇧🇷
I wish this video had plans attached. I am a new builder and they would really help.
TennisLvr he put the plans in the video. Take a screen shot.
I love how at the beginning of the video he says he'll go through how to make it using only a miter saw, jig saw, and a drill. Then when he starts, he uses a table saw. 🤣 I like him
Awesome, this Mama is interested! Great job even though it was probably a little quick for me but because I know cad, so tha5 helpful, lol! that would be helpful! Would it be too much to ask to have the downloadable cad file? It looks like you have it in chief architect in which I could export into AutoCAD or Revit. 🙏🏻 If not no worries, thank you
looks awesome, l am a beginner and need to build one. do you have the plans that can be printed out instead of stopping and going with the video?
Nope. Challenge yourself! You'll learn more from making a few mistakes than from well-written plans
Awesome video. Makes me wanna dismantle my table and rebuild it lol.
is there another video showing the next phase of this build
Was you able to add 90 degrees boards so you can set a certain length so you don’t have to measure every cut?
How are you able to make such nice straight cuts with your jigsaw? Every time I try it ends up all crooked. I bought expensive blades and it does seem to matter if I go fast or slow the cuts are never nice and straight.
Where do you get your blue wood?
3:58 Your welcome
Thanks for your vid I made like yours
I would love to see the version with the dust cover box.
Us, too! That dust gets everywhere!
What size screws
What cad software is that?
Hola,me puede pasar el archivo de sketchup,gracias
From where I can get the plan for this Mitre Saw station
What size screws are you using
Can you share the plans for the station ?
How would you feel about adding casters on the bottom to roll the table out? I would have my vaccum under the miter saw and hooked to it but it doesn't collect all the sawdust, and the casters would allow me to roll out the table and clean up behind it.
I guess im asking the wrong place but does someone know of a tool to log back into an instagram account?
I was dumb lost the password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Vicente Dominic Instablaster :)
@Hassan August I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Hassan August it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my account!
@Vicente Dominic no problem =)
How much did it cost to make it?
You mentioned 3 - 8 ft 2x4’s along the front and 2 at the back. Check your video, according to that there is only one in the back! I did build this with my grandson, but purchased more 2x4’s than I needed
Is there a cut list and a plan that we can print out?
Nope! Exercise your creative muscles and just go for it!
I love your video… but I don’t doing this with lumber because lumber twists and turns……
Why is the left hand table base set back?
Just what I was looking for. Nice build, new subscriber. Btw, my wife says the wood is blue to match your eyes. Geesh
I guess that's technically true lol Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching! ☺
What program are you using on the computer?
looks like he's using SketchUp (www.sketchup.com)
Good luck. I'm Russia.
What software are you using?
Its SketchUp
Is this sketchup?
so did the dust collection hood never happen?
Hahaha not yet!
Like the simple design, like the SketchUp diagrams. Was ready to make this and then noticed that some of your screws are "toe-nailed," i.e. put in at a diagonal to reach a vertical piece. I don't think that'll affect the function, I just don't like the look (I know, to each his own, eye of the beholder, etc). I'll have to look at the details, but I think that could be avoided by using glue instead of screws (which might defeat your purpose of making this a quick-and-easy project).
Time spent on looks is time taken away from customer builds ;)
Hope you find a solution that works for you! Different sets of priorities are what makes us unique!
I didn't see a "How to" I just saw a build!
Step 1. Screenshot sketchup plan.
Step 2. Build it like I did in the video.
We good now?
@@jennieanddavis what a rude reply!
Must have clicked off to another video on accident or something.
@@jennieanddavis LOL. I love your responses =) SMH...thanks for sharing ANYTHING at all! You guys are fun!
Need one for a table saw so you can cut 8 ft piece of plywood
I did the math. You'l need 7 8' boards, 1 7' board, and 1 6' board.
If you can find a 7ft board that is...
I liked everything but the music does not need to be so loud
You could’ve actually attached the plans, would’ve been much clearer than a screenshot!!!
Sorry, your refund is in the mail.
Clearly a very skilled worker (keep it up) but the music 😞
You’re in the minority, friend. We get far more views and positive comments with music than when we leave it out or change genres.
Maybe it's just the camera angle, but why does it look like the infeed side is shifted back where it meets the saw shelf, but fine at the far (left) side? Looks like one of those brain-twisting pictures.
Only going to use 3 tools... uses table saw.
He said he was only using to use wood he already had. If didn't do that he could have done with 3.
My goooosh. . .I know I'm supposed to watch and learn how to build a miter saw station but you have a beautiful eyes. I can't focused on what you're saying because your eyes are too distracting. :D :D :D
Why do you have a random Taco Bell logo up on your wall?
🤣 I was thinking the same thing
Real weird strange
So, all you need is a mitre saw, a jig saw and a drill? You forgot to mention the table saw....
He only used it to cut down some timber he already had. Instead of buying more 4X2. He did say so in the vid.
@@ducatidarmah122 he did, but he also used it to cut down his 8x4 ply......
I know it could be done using just the jigsaw or even a hand saw, but it does seem a little off saying only 3 tools then using 4.
PIECE OF ADVICE: Dude get rid of the MUSIC when you are talking, it is annoying!
PLEASE get rid of the awful music it isn't needed in fact it distracts from the video
Holy ANNOYING music!
This beginner needs a cut list. 😢
Because you'll fail if you don't? Nonsense. Worst-case-scenario you buy an extra 3 two-by-fours ($10). You'll never be good at anything unless you're willing to take a risk and fail.
@@jennieanddavis no truer words have ever been spoken. Life is all about trial and error.
@@jennieanddavis Welcome to 2021. Those 3 extra 2X4 boards are now $25.50 for stud grade around here.
