    Sam, I really enjoy your unique perspective from having worked in a high end shop to now building out your new shop in your garage, as a hobby. Its nice for me to see that I dont need to do all the fancy joints, work with 8/4 hard maple, and spend 2k on tools for a shop project. Form and function. Staying tuned from Canonsburg.

    Get a bucket and Dust Topper from Home Depot. It's an inexpensive and compact way to make a cyclone dust collector and it'll fit under the saw right next to the shop vac. The Dust Topper and bucket come to about $70, including tax. A heck of a difference to even the next one up which, I believe, is the Powertec setup at $87 NOT including tax. I'm still working on my shop setup but, with a new home that needed a lot of updating and redesigning, my time is split amongst many different jobs. I'll get to it, eventually, though, and I'm getting on of those adapters from Shop Nation, also, and then hooking it up to the second dedicated shop vac/Dust Topper setup I'll have under my 12" Ridgid. Same exact saw you have but, as you said, the bigger version so I assume you have the 10". I don't care what others say, I like it and it does the job accurately and quickly. Another tip: change the stock blade for a Diablo Fine Finish 60 tooth blade. Your cuts will be so smooth it'll practically eliminate the need to sand! And it's only $40 at HD.

    When we moved into our house a number of years ago, the previous owner left an old long kitchen couter with cabinets in the barn. I cut out the section of the top where the sink was and made a shelf for the saw out of scraps. Boom! Miter station! For free!

    Always stoked to see a new Sam video. You’re going to appreciate that you started simple and got up and running. Love the extra time you put in also to finish it. Just cause it’s simple doesn’t mean it can’t be *slightly above average*! Keep up the awesome builds man!

    I am loving seeing you build out your own shop, giving me ideas how to do my own. Really appreciate you sharing the janky and problem solving - not editing it out. Making me feel better about when I am doing it twice (or more). Looking forward to seeing what you make next.

    Nice job!
    I built a functional but ugly miter saw station this spring but in a barn. It works but I’m going to rebuild it to include 4x4 posts for legs so I can use leveling feet as the barn floor anything but level. I also want to add t-track and stop blocks with measuring tape. But I’ll be able to reuse 95 percent of the existing structure.

    A nice little bench top planer/jointer would be perfect just to square up 2x4s! I am picking one up this week to do just that... as well as neaten up pallet wood so I can start making table tops/shelves out of it.

    I love your shop videos. As an amateur working out of my garage, your content is perfect for me. Having spent time in that other shop - I believe that you know what you need and how to make a very solid shape when you have more limited space and funds. I love those other guys too but I can’t justify a maple and walnut outfeed table :)
