Cutoffs

The weather is getting warmer and the days are getting longer. It's the time of year when many people start thinking about home improvement projects — I know I am. But in my case, I'm really thinking — shop improvement.

And I can't think of a better way to upgrade the shop than with a few easy-to-build projects. For starters, take a look at the plywood projects featured on page 16.

You'll find five projects in all: a lumber rack, a folding assembly table, a roll-around cart, a pair of stacking storage units, and a versatile sawhorse system. Any one of these projects would be a welcome addition to any workshop. But the best part is, each one can be built quickly and easily using just a single sheet of plywood. So you don't have to invest a lot of time or money to improve your shop.

Of course, improvement projects aren't the only things on people's minds this time of year. Spring cleaning and clearing the clutter are high on the priority list.

With that in mind, be sure and check out the article starting on page 44. There you'll find six simple ideas to help keep your clamp clutter under control.

And to satisfy the urge to clean, take a look at page 42. You'll find an easy way to get more life from your table saw blades.
