shop cabinet design

[Jay Yoder]

I am currently designing a miter station for my basement shop and was debating if I should use a modified New Yankee design, which has the sides sitting on the concrete (with shims) or if i should build the cabinets elevated and use the plastic adjustable legs that I have. I do not have a water problem in the basement, but the house is 30 years old, so you never know.

Jay,
I prefer to keep my floor space clear but not for fear of flooding, rather for flexible space (such as mobile stations which can be tucked under) and mostly for easy clean up of my shop floor.

Not sure if you saw this thread already:

That is a really good point. Thing is I would like some drawers/shelves also, so maybe I could do open at one end and closed with storage at other. Thanks for the link...
