Welcome to

When you have a small shop - space is at a premium. You have to do everthing you can to utilize the every bit of workspace. That's why most of my machines are on wheels. I've always wanted a Miter Saw Station,but I never had the room. The next 2 pictures show my solution to this problem using a Stablemate Miter Saw Station. This is a handy set-up, it is light weight and easy to move around, the side supports extend out to create a 13' support area, and when your finished the legs fold-up and the side supports slide in to create a very compact and mobile unit. (See the next picture for an example of how the station looks after folding it up).

And when I'm done with the Miter Saw and I need to put it away so I can continue to work or if I just need more room - I just slide the side supports in, fold the legs under and its ready for storage. Since I have no more floor space to store my Stablemate and the only way I could figure to expand storagewise was UP - I mounted a hoist in the roof rafters and and attached a piece of angle iron so I can hook onto the Stablemate and hoist the whole thing up out of the way. Since I'm 6'2", I needed to make sure that I could walk under it, it takes it up about 6'7" off the floor. Just another way to use space that you might not think using of ordinarily.

This is the North side of my shop. This picture shows cabinetry that I have taken out of my house when I remodeled the master bathroom, kitchen and laundry rooms. I haven't fininshed this area as I intend to install a full length counter top. Here you can see the sink, coffee maker, a roll paper towel dispenser I got from my brother when they closed an office building, and a small refridgerator. The round tubs you see on the counter top are  from puppy snacks, they are plastic and make storage for biscuits, screws, nails. tack cloth, steel wool, or almost anything.

In March of 2002 I expanded and remodeled the workshop. Click the button on the RIGHT to see pictures of the NEW SAW HORSE WORKSHOP
