16 - Custonize Your Radial Arm Saw, страница 16FEATURE PROJECT Radial Arm Saw Stand A "system"for your radial arm saw that organizes your cutoffs by taking advantage of the unused space below the saw. exploded view OVERALL DIMENSIONS: 30"D x 96"L x 41"H REAR BASE CLAMP (Q BRACKET JW FENCE BASE( 7) REAR TOP For years, the only "system" I had for dealing with the cutoffs from my radial arm saw was a pair of cardboard boxes shoved under the stand. One box was for pieces to be saved. The other for scraps earmarked for the fireplace (or trash can). The only problem with this setup is it was all too easy to pitch a cutoff in the wrong box. And when it came time to locate a small piece for a project, I'd usually end up dumping out both boxes on the shop floor. So recently, I decided it was time to end the clutter and build my own system, see Exploded View. The unique thing about this system is it can be tailored to fit your shop, see photo on page 17. base. I started by replacing the original metal stand with a sturdy base. The base features a lift-out bin for scraps that are too small to use. And there's a handy drawer for storing wrenches, extra blades, and accessories. storage units. On each side of the base, there's a storage unit to organize the cutoffs you want to keep. To provide a "pigeonhole" for different sizes (or types) of cutoffs, one unit has adjustable shelves. And the other is open to make it easy to store sheet goods. TOR To complete the system, I added a table top that features a replaceable insert. (For more on this, see page 23.)
