Back in January 2020, I decided to replace my Dewalt 745, and after a lot of thoughts, I bought another jobsite saw instead of a fancy (and very expensive) sliding saw, mostly because I spend most of my time remodeling houses and not making furniture.
As I do really working with the DW745, I stuck to Dewalt and bought their DWE7492 saw, mostly for its largely improved rip capacity.
And because I work now in a much bigger workshop, I decided to replace my small table saw station with a much bigger multifunction workbench.
As usual, I had a couple ideas in mind but no plan, so I bought a couple 4×8 sheets of plywood for the frame and one 4×8 sheet of MDF for the top, and I started building it on the go.
I quickly realized that I would need more materials to build the workbench the way I wanted, and I ended using a few extra 2×8 sheets of OSB and some scrape wood I had laying around in the shop.
Unlike my previous table saw stand, I wanted to be able to easily remove the table saw from the workbench, so that I can bring it on site.
Here’s what I came up with.
Two weeks of work, lots of issues and mistakes to deal with, but in the end, I definitely call this project a success!
