Shop Project: Table Saw Extension Cabinet

[Jim Fox]

Wasn't sure where to put this. Projects forum seems to be fancy furniture. Move or delete if needed.

Finished this up a couple days ago. Always put drawer fronts on after it's in it's final resting place!

Birch carcass, Baltic Birch drawers and drawer fronts. Their is a walnut strip covering the ply edges on the top and bottom (helps to match the rest of the shop). The drawers on the right were repurposed from my Miter Saw cabinets, where one section was being changed to a door and shelf. Just had to cut a couple down to fit the height. I have neoprene washers between the blades that won't nest and between the blade and the wood drawer. Have no idea what to put in it all yet.

Rough Dims are 41"W x 26"D x 24"H.

I really like your blade storage drawers. Especially the finger cutout. I've been thinking of doing the same thing but thought of using standoffs under the blades. Your idea keeps the drawer depth very shallow.

Is the drawer just a piece of 3/4" ply or did you build it up with another layer?

Thanks! I saw several with vertical storage, but I just didn't like that concept.

They are 3/4" + 1/2". Took a 5/8" dowel and sanded it down and bit. Figured 1/2" dowel would be to sloppy, but it probably doesn't really matter.

Very, very nice, Jim. Puts mine to shame.

What are you using for spacers for between the table saw blades?

If I made something that beautiful, I'd keep it in the living room.
