I can't tell you how much I appreciate these videos! As well I find a lot of woodworking CZcamsrs seem to forget that people with no prior knowledge will be watching and trying to learn. I appreciate the fact that you explain everything, even the stuff that may seem obvious. 👍
My girlfriend hasn’t heard me listening to one of your videos in a little while so she asked if the king of microjig was okay. You are now the microjig king according to her lol
I have the same Table saw and I was looking for the best possible stand for it. I have to say this was the most basic and practical one I found. I made it and it has worked wonders for me. I actually made it from scraps so I had to but some extra thought into the build but overall, this was PERFECT. Thank you Steve. You are awesome. Keep up the great work.
What timing! I recently bought the same table saw. I just finished building a large workbench, and was planning to build a stand for the saw to utilize the bench as an outfeed. And then, here you are with a video for the exact setup I'm doing.
Thanks for the great video, Steve! I have been wanting to make a cart for my table saw for a while now instead of just puttign the legs on scrap blocks to match the height of my workbench. This feels like a very approachable design, unlike a lot of the fancier carts I see on CZcams and elsewhere. I appreciate the simplicity!
Hey Steve, watching your vids in 2019. Just wanted to say I really enjoy your videos and downloaded the plan for the BMW and made it in a couple days. I'm a novice woodworker but you have been a huge help, so thank you sir for your generosity
Excellent project! I modified it to fit my vintage saw. It required a motor mount that attaches to the table rather than hang off the back of the saw, so I made the stand deeper. Rather than end up with super-deep drawers, I put a divider in the middle and made drawers in the front and back. I cut a hole in the top for the sawdust, so the top front drawer acts as a sawdust bin. I also used lap joints rather than pocket screws, and the side panels are just 1/8" hardboard. That's plenty for rigidity; the frame is plenty strong.
I like the construction method of the frame. Looks super strong and like a piece of furniture with trim instead of a few pieces of plywood screwed together.
Awesome, I especially love the fact that you can use the BMW as an outfeed table! I will definitely make this sometime soon for my DeWALT jobsite saw. I'm glad I bought a set of 8 locking swivel casters when buying casters for the BMW :D
Hey, I'm glad you're back with shop projects. This cart is very useful and sturdy. Thank you for sharing. Thanks to MicroJig and Video Blocks for sponsoring the show.
This cart was my first major project in my new workshop, I wanted a taller cabinet for my other tools so I am going to make two with tops at 34". I will make them linked with a wider top to make a bench/desk and the build a tool cabinet on top. Maybe I will never make anything in my workshop but things for my workshop! I shall use metal drawer runners this time around. Thanks for the plans, I tried the Sketchup file but it would not open for editing on my free Sketchup version.
Thanks for the video! When I go by Woodcraft this weekend and they're out of MicroJig stuff I'll know who to blame. I'm surprised you didn't use the Ridgid to cut the panels or mention why you didn't use it.
I finished mine last night. Thanks for providing the excellent design and helping me get experience in my first table saw all at once. For fellow (rabbet) newbies, Steve's woodworking basics video on making boxes is an excellent companion to this. Thanks, Steve! I'm hooked!
Steve, this is just what I was looking to build, when I came across your video. The one I was thinking about did not have drawers, but now I do think it will. Big thanks.
I bought this table saw thanks to your recommendation I am very happy with It. But I am looking for a good explanation for what the little auxiliary fence is used for.
General suggestion - glue a piece of sandpaper on one side of the stop block, then put that side against the fence when you clamp it in place. This should stop gradual creep of the stop block as you push each piece up against it - DAMHIK!
I love this video. I was try to figure out how to arrange my wood shop. Now making my table saw mobile solved everything. I will probably make a mobile stand for the router table, scroll saw, band saw and miter saw.

Steve, I checked out your sponsor, Video Blocks. Looks like a great service and seems reasonably priced. I don't think I'm at a stage in my CZcams video production where I could effectively use this service right now, but I'd love to give it a try later on - when I have more experience with filming and editing my videos. Thanks!
Great Scott, good project back in 1982 I picked up a 1950's small craftsman cast iron table saw $10 without the motor the blade filler plate was missing so I filed one. I built a stand out of scrap from an office remodeling trash can. The saw dust fell straight down to the floor. Built it at my in laws house and used a old cooler motor on a swinging gravity mount $5. It was very portable. Ten year later I sold it to a friend for $50. I picked up the extra large 1950's craftsman table saw with a all the parts and original craftsman grinder motor.
I paid just $80 for the new one and it was on a steel craftsman stand. Recently I passed on a late 1950 early 60's craftsman band saw for $80 it was nice but I just didn't have the cash.
I had so many people recommend this saw, so I bought it. It is probably the best saw for the money you can buy. Most saws in that price range are really crappy, but Ridgid included some seriously good features and a decent rip fence.
I'm going to build my cart similar to Matthias W, style with finger joints and milled down 2x4 stock. Steve, I liked the video mash up at the end, looked spooky, ala Twin Peaks
I know it's an old thread... and you might not even care anymore... There are quite a few truly good nail-guns and combination machines... most stores have a popular "in-house" brand that you can find to do most everything you need with a couple questions to the floor staff... and/or a local contractor. However, (where my input might help most), it's just experience here... ANY carpenter with an interest in nails at all, should probably check into TWO hammers... 1. The "Normal-human all day hammer"... This is just slightly "light" for you... It should still be reasonably sized (length) and balanced for your hand, which is more important as a detail in a hammer than anything else about it... BUT where it might be tempting to "man-up" and go after the heaviest beast in the shop, even a 14 oz. hammer is fine... Consider that you might plan on swinging it ALL DAY, rather than just carrying it around... 2. The "Cadillac"... This is where the "beast-mode" comes into play. We all have it... There are occasions when you're going to NEED to drive something "obscene"... It's just a fact... AND this is the instrument for that specific purpose. BUT I gotta say, there's nothing more satisfying than a "one-shot sinker" with an 18D framing nail... AND you can win a few beers "after work hours" on bets if you find just that perfect balance between length and a "HEAVY ASS" hammer-head... My personal "Cadillac" is a 22.5 oz. claw-head I found some years back and stuck on an 18.5" (36.2 cm) long hickory handle. AND so long as I don't plan on using the thing ALL DAY, I have a tendency to reach for it over the "normal human" sized one... It's just nice to give a few taps, and then make consistently faster progress. Now, for lighter framed folks, weights can go down... and obviously, the weights go up for heftier folks. This just isn't the subject or place to get too much gumption for your own good. At the "tool section" of the hardware shop of choice, you'll probably be well advised to practice swinging... SO while you're thinking about it now, it's a good time to figure out some relatively normal "target" you can bring with you for testing "semi-destructively" for hammer-target practice... This lends you the advantage of actually demonstrably measuring your fit with a hammer in the store... and you stand a better chance of buying a good fit, rather than getting a flashy expensive name on a new hammer you can't stand swinging (because it still sucks)... Just my experience, now... but 90% of the time, inefficiency with a hammer is more bad fit with its user than a bad hammer... There are folks who just don't get "focus", or need practice "keeping your eye on the nail"... BUT more often even than that, it's just a poor balance of hammer to person, than much of anything... Unlike tools and clothes, we (humans) are NOT "off the rack" standardized products. ;o)
I was having a hard time buying a table saw since they're generally pretty expensive and I was worried about buying from "budget" brands. but if it's good enough for steve then it's definitely good enough for me
I was actually looking at buying this exact kind, it was $279 at Home Depot; I went with the skilsaw for $399 and ACME Tools threw in a stand and Diablo finish blade as part of the pre order. Happy woodworking.
One way to build a frame for a cabinet? C'mon, Steve, stop being so modest, your way is best way (if not the only way)! ;-) Thanks for sharing the project.
Good thing it was too low and not too high. Would have been a lot harder to make it shorter.Also I thought you were going to say Oktoberfest was your favorite holiday. Lol
Do you have a video for the basic mobile work bench? I tried to search it on your channel but didn't see anything for one. I'm just starting my journey into woodworking and since I have to move most of my tools and supplies out to my back yard, I'd love to build one like yours. In LOVE with your channel so much!

Have the R4514. Never like the stand it came with, plus to low to use my workbench as an outfeed. Going to make this but a bit taller.

Whoa... A quick glance and I see - now - how to extend my miter saw for a longer stop block. Thanks.
Hey Steve, watching your vids in 2019. Just wanted to say I really enjoy your videos and downloaded the plan for the BMW and made it in a couple days. I'm a novice woodworker but you have been a huge help, so thank you sir for your generosity
That's a wonderful little cart that looks simple to build and will last for years with trouble free operation. Thanks for sharing this one!

Wife and I have been watching your videos. She's deaf, so we have captions on. Thank you for the great laughs.
soy de Panamá.. sigo todo el tiempo estos videos excelentes...aprecio todo lo q hace.
I literally just bought my first table saw today. I already built a version of the BMW.
Awesome, I especially love the fact that you can use the BMW as an outfeed table!

+Marcelo Freitas Thanks Marcelo. Great to hear from you!
I bought a Grrripper push device last week after seeing their ad on your video. It really works great.
Looks pretty fancy to me: the drawer pulls match!
Looks like you got a bunch of Kreg swag
Steve I have watched every one of your videos & I keep watching them over and over. Thank you sir!!!!!!!! Can't wait till everything starts.

WOW - extra fancy tool riser blocks AND drawer pulls! !! !!! GREAT project Steve.
Haha! Believe it or not, those are drawer pulls from a dresser I had when I was a kid!
Great video. I made most of my stands for my bench tools. Having a place to put accessories is a bonus!
For the inside panels I went with 1/2 plywood 3/4 seems like it would make the cabinet heavier then it would need to be.
If it's on wheels it doesnt really matter how heavy
I made one with the 3/4" ply to *ensure* it would be heavy. I don't want this thing to be top-heavy when I'm cutting on top of it.
I bought this table saw thanks to your recommendation I am very happy with It. But I am looking for a good explanation for what the little auxiliary fence is used for.

Im looking to get a table saw very soon so thank you for all these videos!
Also the Intro and product placement in the cart was genius haha 😂
Great video Mr Ramsey,I'm going to use your concept to build a kitchen island ! THANKS STEVE.
Making one of these for my spindle sander.
And I'm going to paint it bright pink.
I made a table with a drawer full of.........microjigs from the maker of the gripper.
can i use my table saw that doesnt have a riving knife without too much danger?
@@gibson_rulls4992 the knife is one of the most important , use it.
@@gibson_rulls4992 microjig! Maker of the grrripper makes a throat plate for older table saws built without a riving knife that has a splitter (basically a non adjustable riving knife) built in
that is a 300 dollar drawer, more expensive than the table saw itself
I just sliced my jig up. Didn’t hold it to the board right and whoops
good timing on this I'm moving my shop from the carport to a 12x8 shed. Talk about limited space.
Steve, I checked out your sponsor, Video Blocks. Looks like a great service and seems reasonably priced.

Ryobi has new One + palm router which is awesome. True helper!
Your saw cart looks good! Simple to build. Thanks.
I started drooling when you opened that treasure trove of grripers
Finally got my first gripper. Have to say i love it... well worth the money .
Oh definitely. I feel like I have much better control than using just a push stick.

Stopped this video so I could indulge in laughter at the second drawer full of microjigs. I’ve never thumbs-upped a video so quickly
Nice easy way to make drawers without expensive slides.
"I got some scraps of polywood." - Show to at two (at least) half of a sheet :D
Beside that, i really like your videos :)
Your hilarious and extremely *aham* subtle drawer full of MicroJigs actually made me laugh out loud! Nicely done, sir!
Also, the actual content of the video is excellent as well 😊
Shop project finishes: great for experimental stuff.
I hope you are ok, with the fires up in your area!
Stay safe!
Steve, that is a very sharp looking cabinet.
That's the exact saw I've had my eye on. Nice and affordable, and Ridgid has their LSA. I've got a few Ridgid cordless tools already and I love them.
I had so many people recommend this saw, so I bought it. It is probably the best saw for the money you can buy. Most saws in that price range are really crappy, but Ridgid included some seriously good features and a decent rip fence.
What model saw is that??
Another great shop project. Hey, you know what you need? A grriper!! LOL

Hello Steve, start making my mobile table for my Metabo table saw machine, found very nice tips on your You Tube videos.
Thanks for the free plans, Steve!
Glad to see you’re back

Thanks for sharing the project.
great teacher thanks for getting my brain into gear
Great project! I've been looking for a new table saw and I planned on Building something similar for it!
I have the same saw. This is great!
You rock Steve!
Excellent video, Steve. In the plan, you mentioned of 2.5 inch and 1.5 in boards. How thick are they? Thanks again!
Best wood working chanel!!!!!
Cool Greetings from Bavaria.
Hi Benjamin!
Good thing it was too low and not too high. Would have been a lot harder to make it shorter.Also I thought you were going to say Oktoberfest was your favorite holiday. Lol
You know, when I got a fever... the only prescription is more pocket holes!
Liked that Steve ...thanks john uk
Nice video Steve. I think I'll make one of these when I buy my new table next year. Thanks man
Do you have also have a video for your basic workbench?
Great Job Steve!
Do you have a video for the basic mobile work bench? I tried to search it on your channel but didn't see anything for one.

everyone is building these fliptop tool stands and i would like to see you build one i think you could build one easier .and by the way love all the videos thanks for all you do...
Mrs. Handyman..
Going to touch base with you and see what's going on with you wouldn't have to do need
great work once again, Steve!
Thank you!
I'd probably start with this before I even make the workbench.
Lol, the micro jig cut away catches me every. single. time.
Not a fan of horror, didn't stick around for the ad. I liked your mobile saw stand though, nice and simple!
