I was searching for a good mobile mitre saw station video, a second later i got a notification of your video!😁😂 Greetings from Belgium (sorry if my English is bad)
Andijs English is great....so is your beer!! Lol
Your English is very good.
You speak English better than 70% of America.
@@FlushtheSystemThanks!
@@whataguy7032 Thank you!
Great video and project. I have watched this video probably 20 times and set out to make my own this week and finished it up tonight. My only issue that I am having is getting the miter saw EXACTLY even with the outfeed wings. How precise does this have to be? I'm close, very close but not exact. If I was to error on this side I would want the table just a tick higher than the wings right? I think I "messed up" with my newness to using piano hinges. Thanks.
A quick bit of constructive criticism...i would have made my bottom shelf (where casters are connected), larger so that the side pieces rested on top of it instead of attached to the side of the piece of plywood giving you more support for the weight on the flat part of the plywood. Keep up the good work....
Very true, support through cross pieces of wood rather than nails/screws. Fasteners are more like place holders. Nice portable stand.
Also the wings could have rested on the sides of the cabinet, not just on the small strips with the hinge.
While at it, I would also have added -at least a partial- back piece to prevent lateral motion while using the saw and moving it around...
I thought the same
I love it when people Monday Morning Quarterback :)
I usually don't leave a comment, but when I do I say: Good job April!
This is freaking awesome! One quick thought: would it be slightly more convenient to mount the piano hinges for the wing supports at the back of the cabinet’s sides so that the wing supports can be deployed from the front of the saw stand?
I could see this easily built stand being the most popular build especially among us that have limited space. Excellent!
I agree. But I'm curious with a shop as massive as yours why you (April) feel you still need a portable, wing-based mitre stand? The beauty of such a shop is that you can have a dedicated mitre saw station complete with adjustable stop blocks and built in tape measure not prone to wandering. A Master Carpenter friend of mine has just such a station. Now that I have the blessing of being able to afford a custom shop build I planned on having a dedicated, stationary mitre station. Pray, tell your logic for the mobility factor. If the reason is just to create content for the small/temporary shop folks that’s cool too, but it seems like a “real shop” necessitates permanent workstations and deliberate world flow without setup and tear down. That was the bane of my existence in my previous two car garage “shop.” Which never saw a parked car in the past 15 years.
1:49 Thank you for including oopsies like this - it makes me feel better knowing that mistakes happen to even the best of the best.
I wish you had mentioned the back you added - it's only visible at the very end of the vid and is not prominent. You can see the carcass flexes side to side as you're raising and lowering the wings before the back was added; rigidity is crucial with cutting tool stands and this thing sways like a willow in the wind without the back on. That could be dangerous if someone doesn't know to include it.
i was gunna say to gusset it i always overbuild things but on something that moves around those pocket screws will flex enough to eventually loosen. gussets will prevent this. good eye to catch that i had to rewatch it to see that
Nice build April. I built one of these and didnt like the casters myself. Then went all out on a stand alone miter station. I guess it's all about what works for you, in each individual's shop. I alwase enjoy your videos. Keep em coming. Thanks.
Wonderful project! I love how you aren't afraid to show your mistakes if made. You're quite the inspiration. Great job!
April. Thank you so much for all you do for us “wannabe wood workers.” I have used several of your plans, watched tons of your videos, and improved my shop and my skills at the same time. You are the best. Thanks!
Aloha April or anyone. Working this project. Downloaded your plans. Question. What is the large angle cut for the two wing support pieces? 45 degrees? Big thanks.
Great build. When the wings are down does material sit level with the saw platform? Looks like the wings might stick up some?
April, I love your rolling sliding mitre saw stand. I’ve seen other RUclipsrs make them, but yours makes the most sense and is very practical. I’m making it
Don Whitehead did you make it?
Gosh, it's so practical!! And you did a great job narrating and editing this video all together. Thanks for sharing!
I didn’t like it, I loved it, easy to make and to transport and to store it, it doesn’t even need a lot of space to store it thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.
Tip: I prefer casters with brakes. I don't want my saw to move as I am using it. Not sure why you don't use dust control with your track saw, but to each her own.
Awesome ! Greets from Germany :)
Great video. Having a simple sliding shelf is perfect. Adding some paste wax to the bottom will also make it slide real easy.
6:17 My nickname back in high school.
Hey April. I just noticed you hit the million mark. Congratulations! Your breathing down Jimmy's neck.
What about some ply at the back to brace it preventing any racking? I notice in the first one you did that is wags from side to side a little. Nice build. Thanks.
I thought the same thing but when she pulls out the bottom drawer 7:25 you can see she added it.
I thought the same thing and also noticed that she added it at the end. I wonder why she didn’t mention it.
@@lucdesnoyers645 Probably just one of those things. Footage may have even been lost.
A pair of locking casters might be helpful. Just a thought.
Agreed. I put locking casters on mine.
having two that lock is a must.
@@bouncebynum How stable do you find the wings to be? My only concern with this awesome table is that the wings would be somewhat unstable/wobbly under load.
Barry I’ve had no issues with stability of the wings.
If you look at the casters link of supposedly the ones she used it comes as a 4-pack of which 2 are locking.
its not a bad solution to the problem, I noticed both the new one and the old one racked quite a bit as you opened the scrap bin. Have you thought about adding a couple of stretchers on your shelves to stop that from happening? I'd be worried over time that the racking would lead to the pocket screws to work their way loose.Also do you use paste wax on the drawer to make it slide easier?
7:25 look in the back when she pulls out the drawer.
Nice video. Thank for sharing!
Protip: When attaching things like piano hinges, or t-tracks, use a Euro Screw. Theyvare a short, flat screw with massive threads that are nearly impossible to rip out or overnighter.
The more you know!! 🌠🌠🌠🌠🌈
my one wish was that the fold up wings had a fence with a stop block mechanism. Wanna do another build video??
Cool stand. I think I’m going to build one since I’m super short on space in my garage shop. Thanks for all the great content! Best of luck to you.
LOL...love you April, but "day build"...for you yes...me? WEEKS most likely. LOL...I can't even move in my shop right now, even when I can I couldn't do that in a day...maybe a weekend or two, but not a day. :(
just completed the first one you did and by far my favorite. I moved the scrap bin to the middle shelf and was able to use the bottom for more storage that is always in great demand. Thanks for the update. My next project is going to be your assembly table/work bench.
I noticed you didn't use locking casters... I have tons of casters... Only none have brakes! Do I need brakes???
Hi April,
Are your plans in metric? I live in the Netherlands and we work in metric. We do have 8 x 4’ three quarter inch ply sheets which seems to me very popular On most if the channels I watch. Cheers Chris “The Aussie living in the netherlands🇦🇺” btw I love your delivery and application to your builds!
Any concerns about stand being top heavy? Was thinking of using these plans and adding sawdust trap box behind saw for Dewalt DWS779 compound sliding miter, but was concerned about being top heavy. How deep (front to back) is your stand? Thanks!
April Wilkerson your channel Rocks thanks for all your great videos just love this channel amazing content...I hope one day that my talent channel can reach as many people like your great channel does every day...Keep up the awesome work you do....A+A+A+A+A+
Shouldn't you put a plywood backer on that?....it would be a bit more sturdy? Just some 1/8 or 1/4 inch plywood or paneling!
Good morning. I have to rebuild or upgrade my sanding station. Any suggestions. It’s for small projects, so maybe 2-3 medium size sanders. 😊
So the piano hinges are at the front? But isn't it easier to fold the wings from the side they fold to? (the side you call the backside)
Erik Bongers I thought this for a minute too, but then realized that she would’ve had to make the shape of the wings much more complicated. Having them the way she does let’s that support notch fit behind the wings when folded, as opposed to having them hit the wing hinge if the supports were attached to the back.
@@davidroe4121 I don't understand. She literally is showing how she opens it from the backside. Seems the easiest way. The notches are already in place. Or am I missing something?
Thanks for
ur interesting n informative DIY video. Interested in constructing my own mitre saw stand n work bench. Looking forward to ur next video.
April, I have a question: Where can I get the clamping square jig that you use here (2:15/9:28)? A long time fan of many of your great DIY videos.
I am planning my miters stand. Initially I bought a 30" sink base as a starter. What are the demotions of your cabinet? Nice job. So much classier than another video I tried to watch. I was not exactly what she was trying to offer. I thought it might of been her.
impressive, trying to think of an appropriate way to support wings when cutting 8-10" 2x6/8's . Have you run in to this yet ?
Hello April thqtbis an awesome design beautiful and practical I will also build the same if you don't mind? Moreover could I ask the make of the bandsaw you used in this very video?
Nice build. Thanks for sharing. I tend to use piano hinges a fair bit and have come to really appreciate a bix bit. www.leevalley.com/en/wood/page.aspx?p=40239&cat=1,180,42240,53317,42265 - they put your pilot hole dead center of the hinge hole, perfectly and quickly. (I was too often consternated by slightly off-center hinge holes).
hello April. Nice video just came across your channel. Wondering if you could make 1 for a portable table saw
Any reason why you don't put in a back to make the stand more stapel?
7:25
Good morning, what size casters are you using with unit? The ink is not working for me. I bought a set of plans and looking forward to the cabinet’s completion. Thanks for your time. Terry
I noticed you have videos where you show using an Armor Tool Pocket hole jig, as well as a Kreg jig Pocket hole jig. Do you find one better than the other?
How do like your Triton track saw? I was considering, but see the low reviews on Amazon.
Just a little comment, the front casters would be better (I think) as locking casters to prevent it from moving when you pull it out to work on. ❤
question: love the video, Do you have a table saw cart build video? I may have to modify this build for the table saw.. thanks so much
Bottom draw could be used for something more important than trash just saying. That's what trash cans are for. Suggest maybe a 15 gallon it's small enough for a day's work and not to heavy
thanks for sharing, but I you could of solved the skidding saw issue on your first stand by simply moving your miter saw a few inches further back. But other than that great video.
Charming. Ty. Been thinking of making a stand. I wonder what could be used to sort of snap the wings to the body when they are closed.
Great build. Do the wings hold the weight well with thicker lumber? Have you discovered a weight limit?
Hi April-
Do you prefer the Armor pocket hole jig or the more popular Kreg and why? I am in the market and would love your input.
I wish I’d seen this before spending $450 on a portacube which is very subpar. I’m going to build this to replace it today! Thank you!
Very nice do you have plans for it or maybe just the dimensions? Also any information on that table top with the holes and nice clamps ? Nice work.
April, I saw a hoist in your shop little while a go it looked 4 wheels on a frame that you could move around and the lift section looks like an upside down question mark, can you tell me something about that? Thank you.
Love it & everything I've seen so far. I love DIY & think all women should be more independent in these things.
Sorry if I missed this in the other comments, but do you have a link for what you are sitting on at about 4:50? Thanks. This is exactly what I need and I look forward to building it
Hi, excuse me because my English language is not very good, but I love yours video and it s very interesting for me.I was french doctor for emergency diseases and I want to say that i had seen that you have à ring for the first finger and this is very careful.If you have the ring in a machine you lose this finger and the first is the uniq finger in opposit with other; If you lose this finger your hand can t work, and it s the end of your wood working.
Berry nice Video. Besteht for my Garage. Manny thanks Form germany lower saxony
Nice simple design, but it really needs a back to make it stable, so it doesn't wobble, and it will also keep the pocket screws from vibrating out over time.
Hey April, Small shop with big DeWalt 12" compound sliding mitre saw. No room on my workbench so was using the heavy duty mitre saw stand that was made for the saw. Had to use outside and was very heavy and time consuming to set up. Was concerned if your plywood rolling stand would support the weight. Great news, it works perfect ! Bought your plans and with a few modifications due to the size of my mitre saw, ended up being a very easy and quick build. I now have space to utilize my mitre saw inside my small shop. The folding wings gives the stand a small footprint that I needed. Your Mobile Mitre Saw Stand works FANTASTIC !
Awesome Mitre saw stand, do you not have an issue with stability? - Brian - South Africa
I use an ice pick to pre drill holes for pinao hinges. I tap it with my knuckle because I am a giant. I need to tighten anyting with my pinky under 1/4 inch or I will twist off the head.
looks good,,,,and you explained it very well,,may i ask what is type of bandsaw you have
Excellent build - thank you - I always really enjoy watching your vids. A simple design compared to some really elaborate mitre saw stations that you see out there but easy and quick to build and 100% functional. Would braking castors be an improvement to lock the cabinet into place and stop it moving around when you are using it?
Terrific video and project. I would like to see you use respiratory protection so I can watch you make videos well into the future.
hey gotta dumb question here. Why not just drop the wings and cut the top sides so the saw can swivel? Just wondering.
Awesome, compact build. I can definitely understand why it gets so much use. I was happy to see that you put a back in the bin slot. I imagine that’s pretty critical to keeping the cabinet stable. Nice work!
This looks incredible. I stumbled upon this video while looking for a mobile display cart for market displays. I’m not good at building things but I have a few uncles and cousins who are. I’m going to show this to them and see how much they’ll charge me to build it for me. Thanks for sharing.
Hi April, you used a dewalt nailer in the video but it’s not on your list of tools used. Can you let me know what one you use and if you rate it as I’m looking at getting a couple. Thanks
I love this!! Do you have a video for the same king of thing except for a table saw?
Good build but totally would not have used piano hinges. Regular hinges are fine
Oh my, the dust! I know this is old but hook that saw up to a dust collector or go outside. Very unhealthy.
April, Been looking to build a mitre stand and get rid of the metal pipe stand. Your design is the one I'm going with. At 73 I'm still learning. I really enjoy your channel.
Es peligroso, que al trabajar uses siempre pantalones cortos, te podrías accidentar y no tendrías ninguna barrera de protección en tus piernas
wider wheel base adds to stability as i’ve seen in other designs . i like the wings being held up in your design. locking hinges just don’t make the grade . slope down
like the fold out wings, was wondering why no lockable casters?
Hola abril te sigo desde México podrías poner subtitulos en español
being portable, You should use a small shop vac on bottom shelf for dust collection on the go? and made toss bin seperate?
I would have added a back panel to make the cabinet a bit more rigid. Seemed a bit wobbly when you moved it.
I made mine this weekend, with a few steps to tidy up. On my one, the stop for the supporting arm makes the top bit stick out to the side because I used a fairly wide offcut. I'm planning to cut out a gap in the supporting arm so that the top sits flush with the supporting arm when it's down.
Where do you buy your plywood!?? All of the plywood I get at Home Depot and Lowe's is warped to hell
Not only is this a good design but you also do a very good job of explaining the process. For example, when you emphasized making sure you verify you're attaching the piano hinge on the same side of each wing, I thought you were talking directly to me 😂
Awesome! I'm glad you enjoy my Channel and find it useful. Thanks for watching.
Question, It appears that the wings sit higher than the top edge of the base. Is there a reason for this? Could they not be made to sit flush with the case? Thanks
I was just thinking it would be pretty slick if those folding supports doubled as front doors when not in use.
Nice. What about adding a back to give it a little rigidity? Looks like it can flex a little side to side.
how do u ensure the miter saw swivel base and the wings portion on either side are at the same height. I believe miter saw swivel base height differs from one brand to another is it not. So for eg if u have a ryobi that goes well with the stand it may not sit flush if u decide to ditch ryobi and go for a dewalt.
you could have moved the saw back on the cart top. that would open up the angle and allow for the miter
Ihave a question why wouldn't you screw the sides on top of the bottom so i
the weight is on the bottom and not on the screws
girl power! I also love woodwork, and it makes me so happy to see another woman with this talent.
You should have used wheels with brakes.
Been watching for years. Since the tiny space to this large shop. So happy to see you have stayed true to who you are. Always excellent instructions / voice-over's to what you are doing. Hard work paying off.
Thanks for the feedback and for staying around through the years. Glad you enjoy the channel. Cheers!
What is the overall dimensions ,Mainly the width . I have limited space.
Hi April ! You make the build look so simple. It's really motivating to try making one. Many thanks.
Nice miter saw work station. Simple design and easy to assemble. Thank you for sharing.
What if you put foldable hinges to hold the wings open instead of having two door things
Thanks for your brilliant video, I will get this built when I can find some time, but as I said, it's brilliant! ❤❤❤
Glad you like it! Thanks for watching.
Don't know how to get the answer to this question, but here goes: why not use glue with the pocket holes?!
