I am severely limited on space. So this is what I came up with. Base is a furniture dolly from harbor freight. A wooden board was put into the crate and screwed into the dolly. Used 3 inch pvc zip tied to crate.

Very cool, especially for 30 bucks. You ****

The pins are so the whole stand doesn’t slid when cutting metal. They go in from like in the photo. Btw if anyone out there doesn’t have a portaband, you need one!

Sorry, meant the fence “guide”

I really like the guide! If I had a mill I definitely try and do that.

Well got the stand done... did I mention I work slow? Got the on/off switch mounted and turned some spacers for the handle mount. Very steady now.

This is garagejournal... you definitely need to go overboard on it!

Got the table made and put on. Used aluminum for the the table but may make one out of steel. I think I’m going to weld the piece of angle on the front and use pins to keep it from sliding back. Ordered a switch from northern tool which should be here in a few days.

Very cool idea, may be stealing this after I get further along. Thanks for posting.

Should have mentioned, this square tubing was free. It was left over from a rod rack my buddy and I made. I’m also going to make spacers for the top rod through the handle. That way the top won’t budge either. Not sure I’ll go with the foot pedal, I’m thinking more about one the push button...

Definitely going to have to keep this in mind!

Thanks for pointing some of that out! I’ll give it some thought for sure!

If you notice the u shape piece in the back, that is what secures the bottom. Once set in it seems to be pretty sturdy. I plan on putting some holes up front that I can drop a L shaped round bar into to keep it from sliding past the front of the bench.

I’m not sure I’m understanding what you mean. Any piece would hit the saw before the upright.

Well I have to say I am a little upset with you guys. Someone here should have let me know that #1 I needed a portaband and #2 I needed a stand for it! I’ll forgive you guys this time lol.:pimpflash I have found myself doing more and more metal projects and the angle grinder cut off wheel is...
