Space-Saving Miter Saw Station
This lightweight, easy-to-build stand is at home in your shop or out at the worksite.
A compact miter saw is a pretty versatile tool for everything from rough cutting long boards to accurately mitering molding. The small size makes it easy to take it right where you need it. There’s a downside to that small size, however. On its own, the saw table is too small to adequately support long workpieces. The solution is the modular workstation you see here. It’s made up of three sections and goes together in seconds to create a sturdy, versatile cutting station up to 17' long. And each section is lightweight so you can set it up anywhere from your garage to the backyard.

Similar Woodsmith Plans
Imperial Plans
The United States Customary System of Units (USCS or USC), more commonly referred to as the English or Imperial system, is the standard set of units for our plans. It uses inches and feet for measurement. This is the one you probably want if you are in the United States, and it is the one we have traditionally offered on this website.
Metric Plans
The International System of Units (SI), more commonly referred to as the metric system, is the alternative set of units that we have available for some of our plans. It uses millimeters, centimeters, and meters for measurement. This is the one you probably want if you are outside the United States. These plans are provided by our business partner, Australian Woodsmith, and are based on the original Woodsmith plan. However, dimensions and other elements of the plan may vary between the metric and standard versions. Be sure to double-check the plan before building.
Premium Plans
All of the information that you need to build our plans can be found in the standard plan. However, if you want even more granular detail to make your job easier, you should consider our premium plans. These come with additional shop diagrams that we drew when creating the prototypes. Shop drawings are not available for every plan.
