Building a Miter AND Radial Arm Saw Station in One!

I had a specific use in mind for a radial arm saw, and I needed a proper miter saw setup. Why not combine the two?

Guilty as charged! Have some "temporary" wire shelving that have been in need of replacing for quite a while...

[@PendragonDaGreat]

@@justinepaula-robilliard It's not so much the amount of actual time, but the intended purpose. You can intend for a solution to be temporary for whatever reason, lack of time or materials to do it properly right this instant is probably the most common one. Then that solution sits, and holds, and you forget or put off changing it and then years down the line you or someone else comes back to it and go "wait, what was/were I/they thinking?"

I had to set up a huge woodshop a couple decades ago.. and warehouse floors are never level.. I used a cabinetry trick I built a base on the floor that was about 6 inches high, I started by placing 4x4's flat on the floor every 2 foot.. I painstakingly beveled and trimmed each each one till they were all level to each other & front to back. it took me 3 days my highest point was 2 inches.. when finished I placed plywood over it and built my 30 foot long table on top, I actually had the same setup you are using and for the same reason.. I only used the radial for dado's.. The shop has had more modern tools to replace the older during the years, but the table is still there and never had to be altered.. I love your channel.. Be Blessed and keep up the good work...

I don’t do woodworking, but love your approach to problem solving. I am a small run apparel manufacturer and as soon as you put the legs up to show us, I knew what you’d done. Having cut out four pairs of pants with 8 left legs once, I can say this error usually only happens once every ten years or so.
