ddean5 Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 I would like to see a build for the shop. My suggestion is a Miter Saw Work Station w/ adjustable platform for the saw so if you change saws you can use the same station and built in dust collection.

Drirot Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 The problem with MDF is that it is really heavy. A 3/4" lid will require some major spring hinges to hold it up. I made one similar in size and use 1/2" ply trimmed with 3/4" oak, similar to what you are talking about. My grand kids haven't managed to beat it up yet. You also have to think about it being filled with toys, are you going to want to move it around? It will be twice as heavy with tons in it, and remember to put handles on it.
