I just built a rolling cart that will fit in the wasted space under my table saw...Gorilla is drying now as I think of improvements already...UGH!!! This will help me to plan a more robust table for my 5000 ton drill press and 1000 ton shop saw....kidding of course, but the last thing we need is sway.

Will post pics of the cart when done.

Hi Wiqar,

Yes I did use glue. My favorite is Gorilla Glue, the hold is very strong.  I'm also sew and had some sticky tape that was also measuring tape, I covered the entire thing in clear contact paper and added a small piece of dry erase contact paper on the end so I can write measurements and notes to help me remember what I'm doing, I built a smaller version this weekend to put my chop saw on that I've had for 9 years and never opened the plastic wrap on.  Used it for the 1st time last weekend, didn't know what I was afraid of, very easy and very convenient.

Very nice...I am looking at the plans and tweaking a bit. Would like mine to be 24"x48" and on wheels, so I will move the bottom runners/braces all the way to the end of the feet, then 3" caster wheels. This should give me more storage. 

Did you use glue? I am building this for my 12" drill press and compound miter saw, so it needs be sturdy and handle the weight...so I am lean to wood glue as well.
