#cabinets#mitersaw#woodworking - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Fantastic overview. Just moved and looking to finally set up a dedicated station. Definitely saving this video for when I'm ready.
I have a couple dozen food storage containers labeled and ready too. I even have some of those in a larger shoe bin if they are project hardware etc. You did a great job. And you weren’t kidding about your platform drawers needing to be able to hold weight! Whooweee!
I have been thinking of making exactly this project. This video, along with your bottom cabinet video is going to be my guide for building it. Thank you!
Working on reorganizing my garage workshop. I'm really liking your miter station and wall cabinets. I think these are definitely going to be useful for me. Thanks so much for posting these.
This is great. It also made me rethink my RAS Miter saw station. 1 - It made me realize I don't need it as long as I was originally thinking. 2 - It also reminds me that I could never afford that plywood, but I can still make it work. I always end up building my shop tables and such out of 2x4's. However, I love watching others build these amazing pieces of shop furniture. Just because mine won't be as fancy, I still learn what to add or take away from my design to maximize functionality. Thank you again for another great video.
Currently doing a full renovation to our shop and I'm definitely copying and modifying that blade drawer idea 💡 brilliant brother 👏😎
This is so helpful, I’m about to build a mitre station and have done that ‘overthinking’ thing to the point I don’t know where to start- but this …has inspired me to crack on…many tks
That was exemplary...well planned, well built and well installed. Hoping you get years of enjoyment out of it. Also...thanks for leaving in the router accident, we've all had our little mishaps that cause us to curse and throw things...you handled it very well considering the time and money you're into this project.
THIS is my dream miter station! Yours look so clean and very well thought out. Thanks for the inspiration! 😊👍
Great job making the description of everything you’re doing clear and concise. Super video.
I had an idea to add the wood stop in my the counterTop because of space and knew someone had to have one and found your video. I watched this on TV but I had to come leave a comment because I received so many other solutions and ideas for different projects I have going on. You showcased so much in this one video and as a new DIYer, it’s Gold! Thank you!
Wow thanks for the kind words!
Great work. In the midst of building a miter saw station as well and these are some great ideas. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome! Glad I can help 😃
*Bought a few months backs **MyBest.Tools** used to cut some 2x4s to make a hanging swing. Cuts were precise and quick.*
I was building a new router table this weekend, and I was nearly done and routing out the inset for the router plate in a really-sweet looking laminated top. I was using a plunge router base, and after I was done, I hit the lever to un-plunge the router and I set the router down on the table as it was still spinning down. Unfortunately, the router didn't completely retract and when I put the router down it made a huge gouge in my nice new laminated top. My first thought was about quitting woodworking and getting a new hobby, but then I thought of the moment at 5:33 where you set the spinning router down on your miter saw station top, and I recalled someone saying the real skill in woodworking is learning to fix or hide your mistakes. I've decided to relocate where I'm putting the miter/t-track on the router table so I can remove the damage with a dado. In the end, no one will know except me, unless they ask about the positioning of the miter track...
Sounds like a good plan!
Wow this was a great video! Definitely inspiring, can't wait to build some of these features into my shop 😍
This is very clean and functional. I love it! Great work!
Thanks @MWAWoodworks...wish I had your shop...still working outside in the freezing cold
Well thought out and executed. I love the way they came out.
Thanks for sharing. Felix
Thank you for the kind words 🙂
Good build process and explanation. A simply solution I used when I screwed up (the underside) of a butcher block countertop like you did: Look at the gouge, think of a neat design that you could route/chisel yourself, then route/chisel your desired design/shape, fill with tinted epoxy, sand, finish, be happy. :D
Yeah! I think what I'm going to do is inlay a logo medallion
Yep. I think this is the route I want to go. I have an old miter station that I build from Ana white plans about 7 years ago. Time to upgrade it. It’s too high. And I never finished out the underneath storage. I think this would work perfect.
You truly have some of the best videos out there buddy! Always top notch!
Awwww man, you're making me blush ☺️ I hope all is well with you brother!
I'M LOVING THE THUMBNAIL IMAGES LATELY MAN!!!! SIMPLE AND EASY BUT I FIND THAT TO STICK OUT BETTER NOW THEN CRAZY BUSY THUMBNAILS!!!
Well thanks!
Awesome work, well done.
Thanks for the video, especially the mistake. Perfect demos make the rest of us feel like screwups. Glad to know you're one of us! :)
"Absolutely Brilliant!" You are truly a "CUT above!".
🤣🤣🤣 thanks!
Easy to follow, looks great.
I'm coping this, just finishing 40ftx12ft workshop,can't wait
I have plans if you need them mwawoodworks.com
Spectacular job!
Those little snack cups are a great storage option!
I am currently building mine - what timing! Nice job and thanks for the ideas 💡
Great minds 🙂
If you strip a TapCon, you can drive a piece of shim in the hole, and it will hold tight if the threads are fresh.
Nice job man! Always feels good to have some sweet new shop furniture.
Fo sho
I have been picking away at building 2 6 foot sections of workbench in my garage based on your design here, and made a similar mistake to your gouge in the top. I was using the flush trim bit to make it flat, and the little wheel at the top of the bit just... came off. And I took a gouge out of the top. At least it's on the side and I can point it to the back... damn it! haha
#mistakesweremade 🤣🤣
This is awesome! I've gotta do this now
Fantastic work, Matt! Really well done! 😃
For my shop I built just a miter kart... You know? With wheels and wings... Because I don't have much space, unfortunately. But it works great for me. 😊
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
That's what I had before I built this! It was great for my old garage shop. 😃
@@MWAWoodworks I bet! My space is around the size of an one car garage, I guess. So it's perfect. 😊
"These are cheap. AND they're snackable." That got me. 😆
STACKABLE, not snack able 🤣🤣🤣 although they are probably pretty snackable
It looks so good. I need more time in the day so I can take this project on!
It took me a while to finish it all!
Nicely done!
Your channel rules man! Keep up the amazing work!
Killer job, Matt! This setup is sick!
Thank you brother 🙌
This was really good. You have earned another subscriber.
Looks great, definitely a few ideas to steal here!
Great 😃
Nice job buddy
Awesome Job!~
Gauge looks like a perfect spot for a little logo medallion insert :)
You know it! 😂😂😂
Congrats on 100K. Great job and keep up the awesome projects
Thank you ,Gordon!
I just discovered your channel and it's my new favorite wood working channel. And because knowledge is power and you have taught me a lot already, I figured I'd share a useful tip with you:
If you do happen to strip out your Tapcon holes, you can easily fix it, and you honestly dob't need a Tapcon screw to do it, you can even use wood screws, even for mounting/attaching things to a cinder or cement wall. Just keep some strands of jacketed wire of various gauges in your tool arsenal and when this happens again, just shove a length of wire in the hole that gives the screw something to bite to. Works great!
I can't take this credit though, I learned it from Next Level Carpentry's channel. If you're not aware of his channel, check it out, he's a wealth of great knowledge.
Thank you for the great tip!
@@MWAWoodworks no problem.
Great build!
Thanks! And I love that name Late Night Homework! 😁
Great video. Hi quality build and hi quality cam work and editing. Thanks.
The cheap snack containers for nuts and bolts are a great idea. Three suggestions would be to (1) use square containers instead of round to maximize your space, (2) use color coded labels to group hardware of the same size, and (3) put the labels on tops of the containers (not the sides) so the labels are all visible when you open the drawer.
Good suggestions!
Labels on top 👍
Love the build. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Great Job 👍
Gracias
I've been watching quite a few of your videoa, especially on the cabinets you build. Fantastic videos? Question where do you get you cabinets handles from and brand? Oh and the drawer slides you use.
Cabinet pulls came from home depot. I bought the drawer slides in bulk from my local plywood warehouse.
T track is an interesting idea, I have extended fence pieces running straight w the mitre saw fence for longer lumber, and if I need a stopper I just clamp a block onto the fence extension. Good work brother
Yeah I gave up the long fences. Just need them at the saw. The t track gives you the stop measurement
Oh the hole! I knew what was going to happen as soon as you picked up the router from the dado. That would drive me 😜. What about routing it out and putting in a medallion with your logo? Very nice work station. 😀
Great idea!
@@MWAWoodworks Maybe rout out a recess in the area for a Band- Aid (covered with epoxy)?
I like this set up. Better than having the mitersaw higher up and having to build platforms which wastes the counter space.
Yep
@@MWAWoodworks bought your plans. Very nice
12:09 - That's exactly what my fastener drawer looks like!
Great video! What height are your left and right benches? I am trying to figure out how tall to build mine. Thanks.
Got some major "fix this build that" vibes from this build.
Hi, your skills are awesome, I am new to woodworking and need to make these stations as my workspace is very disorganised. i have a query about your plans for this, does it come with the plans to make the cabinets as well? and as a novice what station would you recommend to start with?
Yes the plans are for all the cabinets that make up my miter saw station!
Nobody but nobody addresses the issue of shop dust covering the French cleat items. Cabinets with sliding doors will solve the problem. Use lexan for visibility. Your thoughts. Better yet build one and make the video!!!! Thx
Good job :)
Epic
Keeping the bit protruding from the router and damaging the brand new working surface: happened to me as well as soon as I finished my router bench... 😄
Yup
Love this setup. I bought the plans and im halfway through building when i realised my mitre saw wont fit. Its an ozito sliding mitre saw, and with the 600mm deep benchtop, i cant slide the mitre saw back and forth. It needs to basically sit off the bench to give enough room to slide back and forth. What do i do?
Good job bro ..
Thanks 👍
Great job. Love all the organization!
Yeah brother, it's a game changer 👍
Looks great. I finished mine early this fall. I did deep drawers on the lowers instead of cabinet doors with pull outs. Do you plan to move the outlet box this is right behind your miter saw? I thought that was the “mistake” that about “ruined” the project you referenced in the intro.
I do need to move the outlet up, but the mistake was making a huge gouge in my counter top 😜
@@MWAWoodworks install the logo - badge, of your channel (steel / brass - engraving) in the place where the counter top is damaged
Matt,
I have watched all your videos. They are extremely informative and well done!! I am about to build my miter saw station. 2 questions:
1) Why did you feel that the Incra T track with measuring tape wasn't adequate? I was going to purchase and I'm holding off.
2) I have a DeWalt 12" slider. How much more do you like the Festool 10" Kapex?
Thanks and keep making great videos that help all of us!!
I did not like the incra measuring tape system and you can't insert any other brand tape into the slot. The kapex is great. I had a 12 inch slider but it won't work with cabinets against the wall so I switched.
@@MWAWoodworks Matt, Thank you for the quick response and great information. Continued success!!
Haven't watched the video, but this looks almost identical to the Wood Whisperers design.
My man is throwing around money like a mad man lol what with the plywood spacer thingy. Just kidding it looks great. nice work guy.
I'm plywood rich 🤣🤣🤣
Quick question. When installing the upper cabinets how tall is that spacer that you placed on the lower cabinets? Thanks.
I used 18 inches
If you stripe the hole you can is a piece of copper wire stick it in the hole and then screw the tapcon screw back in.
How is that sled that you used made, is it an angle sled also??
what bit did you use for such a wide track?
It's gorgeous. Love the ideas. But I really don't understand miter saw stations that don't allow for a full swing of the miter saw blade. You just turned your Festool compound miter saw into a $1600 chop saw.
I can rotate my saw 50 degrees in both directions. Which is complete range to the left. The right side goes to 60 degrees. I've owned the saw 2 years and never had a need to go beyond 50 degrees but all it would take to use that is to clip the corner of my counter top a few inches and problem solved. I just haven't done it because I haven't needed to.
Is it possible to install this bench away from a wall - not secured to a wall like you’ve done? I want to build this, but it will be in the middle of the shop. Would not adhering to a wall for support cause structural issues for the bench top, saw weight, cabinet contents weight, etc?
Yeah they are free standing
I didn't see in the video but did you route out a groove for the measuring tape on the table top or just stick it on?
Just stuck it on
Put the labels on the top of the lids!!😂
7:08 Guess for unique adjustments it helps to… have an Ace up your sleeve 😎
OTTIMO LAVORO.
COMPLIMENTI.
SALUTI
SALVIO
I bought your plans and I have a Dewalt 780 mitre saw. Can the plans be modified for that saw?
you would just have to make the cabinets much deeper or don't put them against the wall. That style of sliding miter saw doesn't play well against a wall.
What wood cleaner do you use ?
Usually just mineral spirits is good
What kind of mask are you using? I checked out your list of tools and such on your website, but the RZ mask listed doesn’t have the straps I see in this video. I use an RZ mask and honestly don’t like it…it always wants to slip down. Thanks!
The M2 has the velcro strap(I agree, not my favorite) the M2.5 has a pair of elastic straps 👍
@@MWAWoodworks Awesome. Thanks!
How many sheets of plywood are required for this build?
Where do i buy those wall hanger lumber racks? So sick
The orange ones?
Yea those orange ones
amzn.to/3zbA3ro
Epoxy between the plys.. super strong
Do you have a link for that countersink bit you were using?
Just added the link to the video description 👍
@@MWAWoodworks awesome thanks!!
9:20 Is there not a high risk of kickback when cutting such small pieces between fence/blade?
Not with a riving knife installed
👍👍👍👍👍👍
🙌
How is the “cleat” for the tray holding the saw created? Is this a “French cleat”?
It's just two pieces of scrap screwed together in an "L" shape and then screws to the side of the cabinet. No, not a French cleat.
Your concern about the water in the glue warping your benchtop is well founded. I added too much glue to a layers MDF + plywood workbench top I made last year and the whole thing has cupped slightly upward and has no good flat surface now. Eventually I'm going to have to remake the whole thing, to the tune of a couple hundred dollars probably 🤦🏻♂
What happened to the dewault miter saw? Too big in the back to make for a good miter station?
It was a back slider. Won't work
Where did you get the t-track
I would recommend kreg t track. Get it on Amazon. I think there's a link in the description
What brand of t track is that? I didn’t see it linked in your description.
The t track I used is not ideal. I should have used standard t track which is what I put in the description 👍
@@MWAWoodworks thanks! Great build btw. I just moved, and am in the process of designing my new miter saw station. Will definitely be using some of your ideas!!
What do you not like about the Incra track? I was planning on using myself. What did you discover that makes you think that?
what t track is that
I have similar drawer pulls. They catch on my pants and hammer loops EVERY time I walk past them. Need to spend $$$$ to replace them. Anyone else???
You would sell a lot more plans if you sold them in metric too lol.
I just went to buy them but I don't want to try to learn imperial and build at the same time lol.
I don't have enough demand for metric and I would have to pay double the price to have my plans in both measurements. Not worth the cost yet. Sorry.
Can we get the drawing
Mwawoodworks.com plans available for this and many other projects
Playing cards eh?. Genius.
You cannot use all the angles of the kapex...... not even 45°...
I can use 45 from both sides 👍
