This weekend I’m going to start filming my new course on how to build kitchen cabinets. As part of the preparation for that project, I decided to add a much-needed miter saw stand to my workbench inventory. Having a miter saw stand is a huge convenience and while you don’t absolutely need one, it makes your workshop life a lot easier, especially when you add the Kreg Top Trak gear.
The plans for this miter saw are available for free to our newsletter subscribers.
Here’s some pictures of the recently completed project. It took my about three 2-hour nights to start and finish this project completely.
It’s a great entry-level project and the perfect warm-up to a cabinet build since it involves many of the same skills needed like cutting large sheets of plywood, pocket holes, circular saw work, router work, etc.
There’s a lot of room for improvement and upgrades with this particular stand. There’s a lot of wasted space beneath the top, which you can use to install some drawers or a lower shelf. All of those upgrades I’ll eventually get to myself, but for now, this setup will work just fine.
I recently shot an instructional video demonstrating how to build this exact saw and you can check it out here:

This saw was built from the following materials (affiliate links):
Here are some other close up pictures of the stand.
So far, I’m liking this saw stand much, much better than my previous portable stand.
