jschen Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 I'm working in a 2-car garage with a need to have one car parked in the garage so I'm always in need of space and mobile equipment. This project allowed me to have a router table and some extra storage space for my featherboards, router bits/accessories, etc. As you can see from the tabletop I still don't have enough storage space. The workstation was built in 3 stages. 1st Stage: Table Saw Base Built the mobile base for the tablesaw unit. I figured I would have gotten more than 1 drawer out of the unit but after building the dust collection chute I had very little space left for more storage. 2nd Stage: Extension Base for Router Table and Drawers I added this for more storage and created a double door to keep access for the tablesaw internals. I also needed this base so I could create the enclosure for the router table. 3rd Stage: Router Enclosure As you know the router table can create a lot of saw dust so this was built and seems to work pretty well. I have a 4-1/2" dust collection port for the enclosure and a aux 2-1/2" dust collection port for above the table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikem Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 That is friggin awesome! Looks like a very practical use of space, with tons of storage! Great work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmrys Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Like you I work in a 2 car garage that needs to house a car most of the time. Maximum use of space is mission critical. Looks like you have a nice set up there. I will keep this in mind if I ever decide I need to build a storage around my TS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
