Miter Saw Station

Marc Spagnuolo

These Miter Saw Station Plans feature a clean, no-nonsense design focused on storage, support, and flexibility, without unnecessary bells and whistles. The station includes three cabinets with an 8' work surface to the left of the saw and a 4' surface to the right, giving you plenty of support for long stock.

The left cabinet run measures 96"L × 24"D × 36"H, the right side measures 48"L × 24"D × 36"H, and the center opening is adjustable, with plans allowing for a 24" wide space to accommodate virtually any sliding or standard miter saw.

About the Course

These Miter Saw Station Plans feature a clean, no-nonsense design focused on storage, support, and flexibility, without unnecessary bells and whistles. The station includes three cabinets with an 8′ work surface to the left of the saw and a 4′ surface to the right, giving you plenty of support for long stock.

The left cabinet run measures 96″L × 24″D × 36″H, the right side measures 48″L × 24″D × 36″H, and the center opening is adjustable, with plans allowing for a 24″ wide space to accommodate virtually any sliding or standard miter saw.

Built-in drawers, doors, and pull-out trays ride on full-extension slides, while dual T-tracks in the tops provide an easy, accurate way to use stops, all without a traditional fence getting in the way. The fenceless design keeps the entire work surface usable and eliminates alignment headaches.

Designed for real shops and real workflows, these Miter Saw Station Plans give you a practical, customizable solution you can build with confidence.

The Miter Station consists of a left side measuring 96″L x 24″D x 36″H, a right side measuring 48″L x 24″D x 36″H, and a center section for the saw that can vary depending on the saw. The plans allow for a 24″ wide space for the saw.

Reviews:

This is my first completed guild project. Marc’s down to earth teaching style is refreshing. The overall production value is very high and well worth the investment. I’m also in the middle of the Roubo Workbench build. I can’t wait to finish it! Thanks Marc for your contribution to the woodworking community.
