    Glenn, that is great usage of that space behind the tall door. However, I use that space for my saw sled in there and room would not allow your idea. Wish I had thought of it, I might have incorporated such a thing. By the way, I see you have those Rockler fence clamps. How do you like them? I am planning on ordering them within a week when I order some other things from Rockler.

    Great job Fred.

    Looks very professional so I'm sure your other projects will be something many folks on here will be waiting to see.

    thanks for the pics and the neat insight. I wanted to make an inexpensive drawer, but it has to hold some heavy things, ( screws, flat metal plates, jig saw, nibbler, circular saw, blades).. I think this will do the trick!! Thanks again!

    I got a set of these last year. Initially I used them to clamp my router fence to my rip fence, but I just made a sacrificial fence and cutoff fence that use them too. They work as advertised. Most importantly, they don't have a tendency to kick the bottom of the sacrificial fence out the way using traditional clamps right at the top edge did. I made my fences from some baltic birch with some poplar laminated on one side, then planed down to exactly 1" thick to make fence settings easy.

    Nice job on the cabinet and thanks for the tip on the drawer guides.

    Cool. I have such a space under the right hand side of my saw. I've been toying with the idea of making a case for under neath. currently it's the default drop zone for all my off cuts.

    What is going in the space revealed by he tall vertical door ?

    That would be my tablesaw sled.
