Rather than complain about the lack of traffic.  Here is a build along.  forgive me I got started before I decided to document.  but there is lots more to come.

Years back I built a sawbench, till combo.  I think the guy who I copied the idea from was badger woodworks but I could be wrong. It worked great at protecting my saws.  But it always ended up with stuff on it so every time I needed a saw I had to move everything or use a electron driven demon.

Forgive me this is my first run with the new update I am having issues with photos...

I'm in... .............

Here is a view of the inside. Some saws are out.  I also have some pull saws hanging out elsewhere.

Here is the cabinet in question-

Gotta figure out why it keeps changing the orientation of my images. Anyone have any idea

Dog got bit by a snake last week  so he still requires lots of supervision.  He has been in bed for a few days so he was happy to sit in the shop while I made a small stand and a notched bracket for the longer saws with hand tools.   I will probably remake both of these nicer if the plan works out.  Got a rough fit for my larger saws

I am going to have to borrow that pull saw idea of yours. Seems like an easy project I may need to do tomorrow.

Parker, borrow away.  Add a lip to the base so they dont back off.  That would be the the only  change I would make if I wasnt moving the saws.

Had a little time before work today to start on the second half of the till prototype.


I found two piece of scrap and a cut down a dowel for the next stand piece. 




Since the scrap was on the short side I put the dowel on top.  To cut the flats I marked with a drill bit for an even hieght.



Since this is just prototype I just nailed the dowel in with a couple cut nails.

Lots of good ideas, starting with using your saw bench for the till.  Or the till for a saw bench. Keep the tools near where they'll be used.

Hmmm...wonder IF I  need to build a door (s) onto my saw til?

Might have out grown mine?   2 compass saws are hanging onto the top around back, and 4 panelsaws on the side,,,,not enough room for the other backsaws...

So  I just keep them hanging around.  

Saws are as bad as planes....or rabbits?   Can never stop after just one..or two...or...
