rdatelle Posted June 3, 2016 Report Posted June 3, 2016 (edited) Hi everyone. I got these plans from Carmichaels workshop. I thought I would give it a try. I had a lot of 3/4 plywood hanging around so I figured I would use it. I'm not quite done yet but most of it is finished. I just have to put the two front drawers together for storage., The pieces are all cut out already but I had to take a break. Also have to pick up a few bolts to anchor it down. t gives me a little more room on my workbench. I might also paint it. Not sure yet.

Ron Johnson Posted June 3, 2016 Report Posted June 3, 2016 Well done Ralph. Freeing up space on the work bench is a good thing alowing other items waiting in line to get on ... Lol. I like the storage on the stand. The self looks to be the proper size to hold a cold one, and maybe two. Anyway, very nice. Quote
rdatelle Posted June 3, 2016 Author Report Posted June 3, 2016 Thanks Ron. I think the top drawer will hole a few cold one's once I put them together. maybe tomorrow. Shouldn't take to lone. Pieces are already cut. Just have to glue and screw. Quote

Good for you to have the time to make something for your self.You'll love it all the more being hand made by you too.Lots of room for blades,etc.Enjoy!Looking good! Quote
CharleyL Posted June 3, 2016 Report Posted June 3, 2016 It looks very nice, and sturdy. I hope those casters lock or you might end up chasing the saw around the room. I'm not a fan of casters on a scroll saw, but I very much like the stand. Charley Quote
Scrolling Steve Posted June 4, 2016 Report Posted June 4, 2016 Looking good !.....Well done Ralph ! Quote
rdatelle Posted June 4, 2016 Author Report Posted June 4, 2016 Charley, I got 3 casters on the bottom and they all lock. Quote
EarltheScroller Posted June 4, 2016 Report Posted June 4, 2016 That looks like a great stand. It should work well. I have casters on my stand and got the locking ones but have found I don't need to lock them. The stand just sits there no matter how fast I run the saw. Quote
Lucky2 Posted June 4, 2016 Report Posted June 4, 2016 Nicely done Ralph, it looks to be good and sturdy. Len Quote
wombatie Posted June 4, 2016 Report Posted June 4, 2016 Looks strong and sturdy Ralph, good storage too. Marg Quote
Phantom Scroller Posted June 4, 2016 Report Posted June 4, 2016 Ralph I love it, surprising what a piece of ply can look like when you put you mind to it. Roly. Quote

Barry5180 Posted June 5, 2016 Report Posted June 5, 2016 Really nice job on that Ralph. I too would be a bit concerned about wheels on my stand, but this turned out really well. Barry Quote
