Coming Soon... Blade Locker.  In the mean time, if you need one, here's one from the folks over at Wood Magazine (May, 2008).  This is the one that I plan to build eventually...

Coming Soon... Router Table

drill press table

Drill Press Table

Until very recently, drill presses were tools for metalsmiths, not woodworkers.  If yours is one of the older ones, here's an upgrade to gear it up for the good guys.

This drill press table features a large surface area, a wide, replaceable MDF insert under the bit, a bottom t-track for mounting it to the drill press, a rock solid, short fence to position your work, and top t-tracks to mount a couple of hold-downs.

the short clamps

Mobile Clamp Cart

They say woodworkers never have enough clamps.  Truth is, it's true; woodworkers never have enough clamps.  And, if you get a few, they're heavy, bulky, and pain to store and get to the work...

Take your clamps to the work... and not just one or two at a time!  Get them all over there where you need them.

the cart

Adjustable Outfeed/Assembly/Paint Table (version 2.0)

An upgraded version of the Adjustable Outfeed/Assembly/Paint Table featured the same table top with a rolling cart for storage. 

the scrap cutoff cart

Scrap/Cutoff Storage Cart

Got that little pile of scraps that you just can't bear to part with?  This little cart holds a heap of scraps and sorts them into various lengths.

the sheetgoods storage rack

Sheet Goods Storage

Another bulk wood storage solution that works; I can run this thing out to the truck and load up sheet goods, and then roll it right back into the shop.  It doesn't really "tuck away" into a nice little corner.  Rather, it sits patiently by the lumber rack, and if it gets in the way, I just roll it out into the driveway.  Also, the space isn't infinite, but it'll hold enough for a couple of projects.

the lumber rack

Lumber Storage Rack

Lumber storage is always a chore, but it can be wrangled in a little with a storage rack.  Build this one in a day and get the lumber pile under control.

the sliding legs

Adjustable Outfeed/Assembly/Paint Table (version 1.0)

The original Adjustable Outfeed/Assembly/Paint Table featured legs that slide.  It could be height adjusted as an outfeed table or lowered for use as an assembly table.
