Building a miter saw flip-top workbench with a built-in table saw

[@11pack09]

Watched in amazement. The part showing the clearance for the power cord blew my mind, I would not have thought of that.

[@DesireToInspire1]

I actually ended up removing even more material, not mush but as you might see it catch a little bit on the corners so i just rounded them a bit.

[@11pack09]

Well it all looks awesome!

[@jeffschultz1190]

Wow, I can’t even lie, I’ve seen every single table saw/workbench on KZbin. This one is by far, the absolute best one by far. The attention to detail does my OCD so good and just the craftsmanship alone deserves a subscribe, like, and an extensive comment. Well done my friend. I’m looking forward to building one of my own soon, and I will be using a lot of the same ideas as this table. You are an artist and a craftsman of almost unparalleled skill. 110% grade score in my book. Can’t wait to binge watch the rest of your channel. Thank you for the amazing content. As I was watching, my wife asked what I was going and I simply replied “watching the absolute best video there is on KZbin, I’ll be here for a few more minutes” hahaha 🤣 😆

[@Sasquatch7.62]

I agree with what you have said! This guy is by far the most detail oriented wood craftsman I've seen so far on u tube! I want to build one myself and I love the hardwood top he put on there, really sets it apart from everyone else's plywood!

[@sampickens1998]

Beautiful… I was a bit confused when you pulled out the wood flooring, but then quickly became impressed with your idea…

I’m 76. Perhaps 50 years ago, maybe more, I read a definition that remained in my head. It pertained to genius. It read…..’Genius is the infinite capacity for taking pains’. I think that shoe fits here. Amazing build!

[@anthonychan1686]

You should do a second video of what the table looks like now and if you’ve added anything else to it. I’d say dust collection, drawers, power management. The table is too big for my space but thanks for the ideas. Will have to see if I can mock up a smaller version.

Beautiful, practical, and very inspiring! That hardwood flooring idea was really creative. I like everyone else here…. I’m looking for a space saving , mobile/practical workstation for my miter and table saw’s. You should sell the plans for this 👍

[@phillamoore157]

@@DesireToInspire1 Outstanding! Thank you. I'll be giving this a go, as soon as my garage is finished.

[@jhirn2957]

The hardwood flooring top is a great idea. Gives it a beautiful look and adds tickness/weight at a price cheaper than finished plywood. I’m going to make a very similar table and but later add a router section with some t tracks and perhaps a 2nd flip station for planar/sanding down the line.

[@DesireToInspire1]

Thanks! I did just add my ScetchUp drawings in the description. I have also included future upgrades including a table router and additional t-tracks ;-)

This isn’t for a novice carpenter. This man has skills and the tools to do this. Recognize master craftsman. Great job. How long did it take to build this masterpiece?

[@DesireToInspire1]

Well i was and still think of my self as a "novice carpenter", as you can see, I have nothing in my workshop and if I zoomed out some more then you would have seen me sitting on the flooring doing most of the work :D Planing the project was the part that took the longest. Building it did only take a few days and it was very fun to do!

[@davidsprygada4550]

Fabulous build, impeccable detail, well designed, I could go on with superlatives but that would be slowing me down from starting my own table. Exactly what I have been looking for to have easy access to my miter saw. Never bought a set of plans in 40+ years of woodworking. This just might be the first. THANK YOU for such an informative video!

[@jenniferadair1005]

I've never seen someone use the wood flooring for the top, but this is gorgeous!

[@fryertuck6496]

Terrible idea, that will chip along the joins and be a cut factory. It will have next to no resistance to staining etc. Zero water resistance.

[@DesireToInspire1]

I do not agree at all to this. After using it for 2 years now I can clearly say how impressed I am by it. In a small part the lacker was been sanded away from sheets being pushed on it abut that was very easy restored with some lacker and now it look brand new again. Because it is made out of real oak (5mm i think), i can just sand it down and put new lacker on it when i want to restore its former glory :) I do not regret using hard wood floor boards on it at all!

[@paulroberts7561]

This Is not just woodwork, this a a serious engineering masterpiece. Well done. It gave me a few ideas but it will be a less ambitious project.

[@FuzzyWoodWorker]

Wow, that’s all I got. Like the idea with the flooring on top. This is a showcase piece.

[@billybike57]

Looking forward to seeing more of your content and builds. You have an excellent eye for details!

[@winknotes]

That is fantastic! I've looked online and seen other designs that are much simpler but involve sliding the entire saw out to manually flip it over. I thought it could be done the way you've done it but couldn't work out the depth dimensions to have the open surface level. I admire your attention to detail too even with "common" lumber.

[@DesireToInspire1]

Thank you so much for your kind words!

[@CliffordStaley]

This was a really nice job. I built a smaller rolling table for belt sanders and grinder. I recommend using a long vertical board on a hinge that moves out of the way for rotating the top and back under to transfer load all the way down to the base of the frame. Over time the latch you used may creep and with the board you can actually pound on the top with no worries

[@Jacsk95]

I absolutely love this workbench. You did such an awesome job Kenny!

[@chadryk5]

Fantastic build. Thanks for sharing!

[@b3owu1f]

Man.. that looks amazing. Such a great idea to use wood flooring for the top! Never thought of that. I would want to put some layers of polywax or something on top of that to try to protect it a bit as well and then still use foam under cuts. I need a table that size but is portable! Something I can get folded up and off to the side. I found a really nice one on wheels, just need to figure out the add on part to make it bigger when working with 4x8 sheet goods.

Bravo! Very clear presentation. As a beginning woodworker this is a confidence-building vid. Watched it twice and will refer to it again as I progress. Thanks

[@DesireToInspire1]

I'm just as new to this as you are so I believe anything is possible if you just set your mind to it. I did create this work bench in Sketchup and was working on it for a very long time trying to figure out each step if it even was possible to build. In the end I felt ready enough to give it a try and it turned out way better then I hoped it would :) Having a great surface to work on make all other jobs so much more fun to do. In the bast I have always worked on the floor... felt it was time for a change.

[@SophiaAphrodite]

I just watched someone who merely had the miter saw drop down and you drop a board in the place. I thought if I did it I would make it flip over. But I felt was out of my abilities I noticed a craftsman's skill with wood has a direct correlation with their tools. The skill comes from learning how to use them.

Building is not that hard. The most difficult part is designing it. I spent many months planing it, going over everything in my head over and over again. When i finally started to built it then it was not much more complicated then puttning together some bricks of Lego :D Keep in mind that this was the first time i ever built something in wood so i had probably a lot less experience then you do now.

A masterpiece! I like the hardwood flooring idea, I think I'll borrow it except, I won't put spruce trim around it......and I'll miter the flooring edges so it drapes over the sides.

[@DesireToInspire1]

I'm not sure what "spruce trim" is but i assume its the board i put around the bench to cover up the transition between the floorboards and the plywood. Yes i wanted to skip it to but the transition was just so ugly that i had to come up with something to cover it up. The "spruce trim" are now in the way when I want to install a bench vise so I have to come up with a solution for that. Thanks for watching the vid!
