How to Build a DIY Mobile Miter Saw Station | With Dust Collection and T Tracks!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 июл 2024
- I show you how I built my DIY mobile miter saw stand. I wanted a miter saw stand with some of the bells and whistles of a large standard miter saw station but without taking up all of the space. I also wanted one that had the full support of a regular workbench. I have a list of some the cool items I installed on this workbench below.

Hey guys and gals, I have amazon links in the description for some of the tools and items in the video if you are interested! Might I recommend the auto dust control switch? 😎 Thanks for watching!
Do you have plans yet?
Was going to build on giant table. Saw this. And you changed my entire way of thinking. Love your channel. Thanks for all the excellent information
Thanks for mentioning the sag issue... I noticed two other builds using this process and those brackets, one of them showed the sag and the other one didn't, I even asked asked her two questions on this issue, and no response. Thanks man, much appreciated and good idea with the legs.
You are very welcome! Really glad to hear you liked it. Thanks a lot for the feedback Joey!
Nice idea. Had bought mitre saw for almost 2 years and been doing all the cut on floor (with some woods as padding though).
Would love to try and make one.
I love the extra support legs that you put on the ends I need to do a build for a miter saw table and I've been racking my brain to try to figure out how to put a better support than a piano type hinge.Thank you for the tip on the MDF board I will check the prices you may have saved my soul and my wallet LOL⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Looks very sturdy, nice build!
Love your idea for the legs of the extension tables.
It is a good idea to fold them in that way.
I will replicate that for sure🎉
Thank you cool video
Really glad to hear you liked it. I love this thing. Really functional and doesn’t take up much space. Thanks a lot for the feedback and enjoy the build!
Thanks will do.
Searched a long time but you were the first with this leg idea an this should provide a good stability even if you have to cut bigger beams.
Nice! Very good job!
Thank you. Really glad you liked it. Thanks a lot for the feedback!
It really looks wheely good lol
Think I'm going to try to replicate your build in the near future.
Get a proper miter station going with the stop block system /dust collection you're showing, and cut down on the space my current setup uses at the same time - win/win. Thanks for sharing!
Sounds like a plan Adam! Nice name by the way haha. Yeah, I have absolutely loved this thing. I intended to make plans for it and I did start on them but just got so busy with other things I haven't completed the instruction portion yet. Anyways, thanks a lot for the feedback and if you have any questions, feel free to shoot them my way.
Thank you. Please send update when you have the plan handy.
You were worried about the brackets sagging but I’m wondering how things work out once the legs are down? Almost need leveling feet or something. Hmmm. Really want to make one of these though.
are the plans out yet? Is there a need for the locking braces of you add the legs.
Nice, very nice. I have not in all the videos I've watched about building a miter saw station anyone screw the saw down to the table. How did you address the problem of the saw moving?
Great work. What kind of wood did you use for the framing and legs?
You can mount a router under one of the wings
I'm looking at your plans and the only thing I'm wondering is if I could incorporate a flip top for the miter saw so when it is flipped over you have a flat surface and descent sized workbench as a result. Any ideas?
Looks like the dimension of the main table is about 24”x30”. Am I close. Just purchased a new Bosch, and plan to build a table right away.
like your leg solution
Thanks! Has worked out really well for me. Thanks for the feedback!
I used similar brackets for an outfeed table on my table saw and they are just too flimsy to hold more than about 10 lbs.
Love the station. This is something that would work in my small space. How are the plans coming along?
The plans were mostly done but finding time to finish them was the problem haha. I just recently added the plans to Etsy. You can find the link in the description of the video if you are still interested! Thanks Larry.
Exactly what I need. Are the plans available, because I want to make that exact one. Absolute Perfection. Thank you
Same
How do you line up the t-track with the miter saw? Do you center the miter saw on the table? I bought the plans but was just confused about this part.
nice video.plan please
Adam, love the video and really like the stand. Exactly what I need for the house and my Dewalt miter saw. Do you have a timeframe for the plans? Many thanks look forward to the project
Hey Carlton, I actually spent a decent amount of time making the plans with all of the measurements, I just didn't finish the steps though. Perhaps I should get that done! I really appreciate the feedback and am glad you like the stand. I will see if I can't get those plans finished up soon.
@@HowToHomeDIY Awesome! Thank you Adam! I look forward to seeing them. Can't wait to get started! again, superb work on your part. Well thought out
@@HowToHomeDIY Hey Adam, checking in with ya. Great work on the videos. Very helpful
This is great, but the legs are only going to be level if on a level surface. If one side of the ground is lower than the other, the legs won't touch the ground on that side.
How many 2x4 did u use on this? I don’t see the plans. Thanks
Oh… question. Could you have two sets of the brackets or would that be a pain in the ass?
I have the same saw and would love to have the plans for this.
I love this saw! I recently added the plans to Etsy. You can find the link in the description of the video if you are still interested!
@@HowToHomeDIY Thank You!
You are welcome. I hope you like them! Let me know if you need anything or have any questions!
Any issues with making cuts at full turn of 60 degrees. Only thing not covered. Maybe do a follow up video on how it’s working out.
where did you get the steel brackets from?
Wouldn't regular hinges be fine on this since you've added leg supports? Just thinking about money difference in folding brackets vs regular hinges.
I was thinking the same. I have this kind of hinge for a foldable table and they cost over $30.
Hi there. I just looked at you'r movie of making a table for the miter saw and I was surprised by your hook clamps that you use. I think they are great! As far as I know we can't buy it here in the Netherlands. Would you be willing to buy a pair af it and send it to me?
Kind regards and waiting for your answer,
Frans Lambregts
What are the tracks for? How would I use them? Maybe you should have demonstrated that.
You can make stop blocks that go into the track which will make it easy to make repeatable cuts. For added functionality I would recommend also putting a scale onto the wings alongside the t-tracks.
Exactly what I need. Are the plans available
Sorry it took so long. I just recently added the plans to Etsy. You can find the link in the description of the video if you are still interested!
Nice video… but one question: why do you not wear safety glasses ?
I had a career in construction rising to sup’t, & always wore safety glasses well before OSHA, & I’ve seen, first hand, guys ‘losing an eye’ that safety glasses would have easily prevented.
Great advice about wearing a face-mask as protection against inhaling wood dust, etc… making me all the more puzzled about lack of safety glasses.
That said, NICE VIDEO of constructing a nice, very useful DESIGN.
Sometimes I do, especially when running a table saw. Just personal preference. I have run all kinds of circular saws, miter saws, etc and had no issue. Things like table saws and drill presses though, I always do.
Put your planer on a flip top. Otherwise looks good.
I noticed you are screwing the 2x4’s together into the end grain when making the framing for the top and bottom shelf. Over time have you had any issues with this regarding wobble or wobble in the framework or does the MDF take care of that? Thanks. Hope to build for my Christmas present miter saw.
I have had zero issues with it and I have used the mess out of this thing. The MDF does add a really nice layer of pulling and holding everything together. I hope you like yours as much as I do mine once you make it! Congrats on the new miter saw!
After attaching the brackets I discovered they aren't square....Any advise?
What are T-tracs for?
How will we know when you have your plans ready for distribution? I would really like to make this project.

Plans avaliable?
When you factor in the cost of the wood, tracks, brackets, hardware, casters, mdf, and the time to build it just seems to make more sense to buy a mobile stand like the Toughbuilt S600 or Ridgid AC9946. Not saying you don't have any benefits over them, but they surely have benefits over your setup as well. One push down on your foot and you have the entire saw out ready to go with sliding stops and extensions up to 10ft I believe. Superior mobility and storage as well.
I disagree. This costs less than those metal stands especially now that wood prices have dropped since making this video. With the miter saw attached to it, those will take up almost the same amount of space as this does with the wings folded down. Those offer no options for a bottom shelf, which for me holds my planer and dust collection. You may like those better for yourself but to say they are superior, I don’t think that’s true in any category. Those stands you listed are more for contractors who need easier mobility to go from job site to job site. Outside of that, if you’re a maker, make something.
@@HowToHomeDIY My Dewalt planer is 92lbs. On the Toughbuilt S600 it's a breeze to move around, supports the weight, and folds up nicely in a corner. I never have to pick that planer up again. The cost of your build is not much cheaper. $60 on MDF, $40 on 2x4's, $90 on folding brackets, $35 for T-Track, $25 for casters. You're over $200, and you gotta do a lot of work when you can just spend a little more, open a box and assemble. The Ridgid goes on sale often enough around $125, the Toughbuilt I've never seen a sale on yet. I'm not a contractor, but my work space is small, and these stands move around so well over any terrain, up and down stairs no problem its effortless.
The brackets aren’t $90. $40-50 for two pairs depending on size. So the total build is under $200 and it can hold my planer and my miter saw. Those stands you are talking about are each $230-300 depending on where you get them. I would need two of them, one for my miter saw and one for my planer so at best I’m at $460 and with two of them with those items on them they are going to take up way more space than my build. I’m glad you are happy with what you have but again I strongly disagree that those are better.
Any plans available?

Ever post plans

Are you still going to post the plans?
I was just thinking about that about a half hour ago 😂. They are pretty much done, with a couple small things needing to be added. Just need to figure out where and how to post them.
@@HowToHomeDIY Can't wait for you to post them! I've been looking at quite a few similar plans but i like yours the best so far.
A word of warning to people who aren't that familiar with routers: when routing along a guide like in this video it is easier to go the other way. The rotation of the bit will pull the router towards the guide and require less wrestling, whereas the direction shown here will make it push away, requiring you to really keep it in check.
Plans???

Those wings are garbage
😂 your autocorrect misspelled amazing. Because that’s what they have been for me. Appreciate the kind words!
