To further encourage synergy, I also built my main
assembly bench and a storage cabinet to the same
height.
Now none of the tables get in the way of one another
when I'm working with large components and
materials. In another part of the shop, I built a
workbench next to the drill press at the same height as
the drill press table to provide additional support
when drilling long boards. Similarly, my sliding
compound miter saw gets a big helping hand from a
pair of tool storage cabinets that I set to either side of
the saw, their top surfaces level with the saw table.
The bottom line is that I seldom. if ever, have to move
furnishings around (though sometimes I do have to
clear them of) in order to work with large pieces of
stock. My shop furniture is all one happy family
working together to keep me happy.
