You do have to spend some time setting the saw up... blade, fence, etc. But once done, the saw is great. Fairly compact which is Nice kzbin.infoUgkxXh-4_3-ZT1fFWP91ZV7iVqzElr0lEb-a I did get an Incra Miter Gauge which takes some setup as well. The stock miter gauge can be adjusted in the miter slot with a little painter's tape... this tightens up the side to side play a lot.

[@siriosstar4789]

This is waay beyond shop grade . this is like something you would see in a high end kitchen .👍

[@choprpilot76]

I admire people who take pride in the look and style of their shop. Many people claim “it’s just a workshop” or “it’s just a workbench that’s going to be abused”. Well, yes. But if your going to take the time to make something anyway, why not use it to get more practice and make it nice, functional, and appealing to the eye. I personally think if your shop is an atmosphere that you love being surrounded by and being in, you’ll want to work in it more often. Nice job, but I would hate to see the bill for all that maple.😂

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Couldn’t agree more!!

Timely recommendation from KZbin to put this video on my feed. Spent most of the day working on plans for my out feed table, and the feet + wheels situation was something i needed to source. Subbed and looking forward to watching through your catalogue!

[@justavian]

Looks awesome. Everything i ever build has some kind of dramatic contrast in color, so this is right up my alley. I don't immediately have a need for this, as i already have an outfeed - but if i need to remake it, this is going to be the look i go with. Great work.

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Thanks I appreciate it!!

Probably my favorite looking outfeed table so far, and it's about the same size as my current one I've been wanting to replace. I will have to build one similar once I can source some good lumber for the frame.

Haha I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!

[@tupelowoodcarver1785]

Nice out feed table. Just in the finishing stage on your bedroom set build. My Brad nailer bit the dust and bought the Milwaukee cordless…heavy but works flawlessly.. now it’s time for the Graco’s out of the box experience! Keep ‘em coming

That came out sooo good. Great idea about the wheels. I built my small workbench earlier this year, but wish I had seen your video first. The castor and mounting plate idea is gold. Also, I have been avoiding making the groves in my outfeed table so it was great seeing you do it.

[@awlthatwoodcrafts8911]

Stunning, John. Simply stunning. You have made some beautiful furniture in the past and even built out a beautiful home. It just seems fitting that you'd build shop furniture with the same attention to detail. I plan on building a bench/outfeed/assembly table about this size. I also plan on using 4x4's for the legs and 2x4s for the rails. My plan though is to use castle joints on top of all 6 legs. Might be overkill but I like the idea of letting the wood bear all the weight, just like with your half-laps.

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Maybe overkill but oh well!! Fun to practice and looks awesome! 👍🏽

[@JMBurke]

so glad I stumbled on this video. what you did with the leveling feet and retractable wheels is exactly what I was trying to figure out. And while I'm at it, I may completely take your workbench idea. it fits my small shop perfectly. Thanks.

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Glad it helped man!

[@locoken]

Why don't you have more subscribers than you do?!?! I love the channel, John. Probably said that before, but your attention to detail and the cleanliness of your work is what keeps bringing me back. Always looking forward to the next video. Thanks for sharing your love of woodworking!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

I appreciate it, thanks for watching!!

[@anthonycaldi7056]

Well done! Love your attention to detail and making is special because it’s yours and you can. It’s obvious you have a high standard and it comes through in your videos. Often times when I’m watching, in the beginning of this video for example I’m think be great if he added casters, and would look sharp if he finished the edges on the shelves but as I continue to watch it’s clear you haven’t missed any details. Great job!

I don't think I've seen anyone else use the pre-drilled holes for the drawer pulls as a way to fasten the drawer fronts. Awesome idea! Makes it easier to get those lined up and fasten from the inside.

Absolutely!!

[@dalefisher5564]

John, I just completed this build a few days back. Followed everything exactly as laid out in the plans and I couldn't be happier with the results. I only made one adjustment, instead of using black edge banding on the shelves I capped the edge with a piece of oak and cut in a small rabbet lip for the shelf to sit on so the weight placed on the shelves will be harder to warp the shelving material over time. Thanks, I love your channel. On to building your miter saw station next!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Awesome! Good idea on the shelves👍🏽👍🏽

[@plasmac9]

That's the nicest out feed table I've ever seen. Good job. Your dust extraction for your table saw is also incredibly good. As a viewer, I almost never hit the like button when I watch a video, even if I liked it. But when the creator reminds me in the video I will do it. It's definitely effective to ask your viewers to hit the like button.

Hey John, Thanks for your content. I certainly appreciate the time, effort and thought that you put into producing a nice piece of work like this (both the outfeed table and this video). I stumbled onto this video as I was looking for ideas on my CNC router table/workstation design. I am going with a different top and drawer cabinet configuration, but I love your lap joint process on the base frame as well as your simple (but strong) cabinet carcass assembly into the workstation. I think I have this figured out now but I went ahead and purchased your plan. Good video my friend and buying your plan will help you continue to create great content like this and... I have a nice addition to my library. Subscribed.

[@Rich-rh1kt]

Great video John! I'm brand new to woodworking and in desperate need of a workbench. I've watched what seems like hundreds of workbench build videos and yours is by far the best for someone like me. I don't have much in the way of tools.... I have a sixty year old table saw, a circular saw, a drill and a few clamps. Nevertheless, I'm certain I can build your bench because you took the time to explain everything step by step. Of course I won't be using rough sawn maple because I have no way to mill it down. I will probably be using soft wood from a big box store, but maybe I can trim it with some hardwood and make it look nice. Yours is just beautiful and so incredibly stout. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@JohnBuildsIt]
