    I had to set up a huge woodshop a couple decades ago.. and warehouse floors are never level.. I used a cabinetry trick I built a base on the floor that was about 6 inches high, I started by placing 4x4's flat on the floor every 2 foot.. I painstakingly beveled and trimmed each each one till they were all level to each other & front to back. it took me 3 days my highest point was 2 inches.. when finished I placed plywood over it and built my 30 foot long table on top, I actually had the same setup you are using and for the same reason.. I only used the radial for dado's.. The shop has had more modern tools to replace the older during the years, but the table is still there and never had to be altered.. I love your channel.. Be Blessed and keep up the good work...

      @@justinepaula-robilliard It's not so much the amount of actual time, but the intended purpose. You can intend for a solution to be temporary for whatever reason, lack of time or materials to do it properly right this instant is probably the most common one. Then that solution sits, and holds, and you forget or put off changing it and then years down the line you or someone else comes back to it and go "wait, what was/were I/they thinking?"

    I have to say I'm very impressed with this build. The radial arm saw is an INCREDIBLY versatile tool to have in your shop. As the proud owner of 2 of them (1 dedicated to cutting and the other one with a dedicated arbor bit stand) as long as you pay attention to what you're doing and respect the power they have, you can do some pretty incredible things with them.

    My mitre saw (which I bought for my dad 30 years ago for him to do some flooring with, and then he gave it back about 5 years before he died) sits on a workbench that my dad and I built when I was 13. The top is red oak, made from joined 2 x 4s. Heavy as anything but solid. It's a pain to move, but I cannot bear to part with it. I'm turning 60 tomorrow, and it has been a part of my life for a very long time...

    In my defence, I didn't want a bus. I was imagining a fresh food truck that delivers food and other supplies to campsites would be dope.

Half the time I want to run up to him and urge him to hold the piece in a slightly safer way or maybe not run his push block right up to the blade but his humility and sense of humor make his videos some of the best.

    I feel radial arm saws are underappreciated these days, they are pretty versatile for all the reasons you mentioned. If you've got the space for one, it's a great addition to the shop.

      I do agree.. especially when you factor in a molding head for making trim at a miter station... 👌

    Turned out really nice! It’s nice to see you using thinner ply, etc. and especially dados!!! Looks super clean and I can wait to see your take on dust collection and then drawers and organization
