You know how the old saying goes: “Temporary fixes tend to become permanent”. When we moved into the new house I needed to get the table saw up and running ASAP. So I cobbled together an outfeed table and side panels from leftover framing lumber and a broken sheet of formica I found on the side of the highway. The plan was to eventually make something better. Ten years later, the table saw still looked like this:
Finally got the saw into a new home. Also got it completely torn down for cleaning and fixes on some trouble spots.
A slightly wider outfeed table with shelving to store more stuff
Some jazzy drawers and shelves to hide some of the junk on the bookcase to the right.
Got a full 8 feet of outfeed to cut ply sheets. The big door under the saw is sawdust collection. Hopefully saw dust will stay a little more contained.
The cabinet has height adjusters so the whole thing is level flat. And best of all, it’s at the right height. No more back straining.
Sweet, sweet, sweet.
