"cheap metal?" Have you actually used the HF pocket hole jig?

THANK YOU . . . Pretty much the solutions I was thinking - though I was just checking to see if there was a method that spotco2 utilized that might have been different.

So I followed spotco2's lead and worked on adding casters to my 2x4 basics workbench - which is 3.5' x 8' using 2x6 beams. Exactly as diagramed above, I "scabbed" an additional 2x6 piece to the bottom support beams, but I found that the base of the swivel casters were too wide too attach to the...

QUESTION: What's the general success rate for using a 25% discount coupon WITH one of the "Super Coupons?" I know that the fine print says "not to be used with any other discount," but I know I've seen stories of people successfully using both and getting even bigger discounts. If you've done...

THANK YOU VERY MUCH for this !!! I am going to be giving this a try this coming weekend.

Anyone ??? :dunno:

Well, I'm not going to get into a ******* match about what's better ... because in the end, it's WHAT WORKS - and I can assure you from first-hand experience, the 2x4 Basics legs work very well for a sturdy workbench or assembly table function. As you can see from the numerous photo examples...

Have you actually seen/held a set of those legs? They're actually very sturdy and strong ... and, unlike wood, they won't rot.

spotco2 . . . . I have been trying to figure out how to install casters on the bottom of my 2x4 Basics bench. Could you PLEASE PLEASE try to take a pic (or several) of how you attached the casters to your bench from underneath ??? :headscrat (Here is where I had been previously asking -->...

Well, I have an older Craftsman ("10" series, I believe) belt drive table saw. The cast iron table top is 27" long and 20" wide. It's almost identical to the photo below:

I really like this DIY custom table saw stand I found while Google'ing through images, but unfortunately the blog's author didn't include any detailed info on the dimensions/measurements of the project. LINK TO BLOG POSTING --> http://imgur.com/a/9WLGR Anyone care to venture a guess as to...
