This should make easier access to my LP's. The flash makes it look lighter than it is.

Each bin (8) should hold about 75-100

    Nice work. The saw is the same brand as the table saw at Polk Audio. Used it many times, wished I had one of my own. :cool:

    That is gorgeous man. What type of materials did you use as far as wood and staining? I'd like to try a smaller version with just the 4 big bins for LP's. Also what are the dimensions of the finished piece.

    That saw isn't going anywhere. If anyone is wondering what type of table saw this is. It's a dual blade slide saw. The first blade is smaller and rotates in the opposite direction of the main blade. This eliminates any kind of blow out or splintering of the plywood or melamene.

    Everything is oak. I stained it to match my existing cabinetry. Measurments for each opening in the 2 main cabinets are 15.5 X 14. The width accounts for 1" for the drawer guides (heavy duty) and 1" for the sides of the drawer 1/2" each side).

    The cabinets are 24" deep and 33.25 tall (including 3/4 top) Drawers are 22"deep. Pretty standard measurements. I kept the bottom drawer 3" up from floor. All the exposed plywood is edge taped.

    Very nice work. Can't do anything like that myself. I just had a carpenter install some new Kitchen cabinets to match some 30 year old units because we had to put in a new Stove-top hood that was much shorter than the old one. This is a REAL SKILL...they look almost exactly like the originals. Your work is pretty close to his! As for me, I'm REALLY GOOD WITH PLASTIC MILK CRATES! lol

    Looking quite good. Makes me appreciate my uncles (who are carpenters) all the more....

    Having the space and right tools does make a world of difference. :biggrin:

    Here's a better view of the drawers.
