: I've just acquired a craftsman bandsaw. I'd like to put it on tools

: Any ideas/pics from those who have done it?

: Thanks.

I have my planer on wheels, measured and built a stand from some 2x4's, locking wheels on the bottom, height measured to match the height of the table saw table that I built so that can also be used as on/off feed for the planer when needed. Will upload some more pics to show, but this link should work to some pics on my FB album for the tablesaw.

Planer stand used maybe 4 8 foot 2x4's, wheels were about $3 a piece at the local hardware store, so cheap cheap and.... when u make it, u get to make it exactly as YOU want it to be.

Going to build a stand for my bandsaw as well, tools on wheels make things soooo much easier :)
