How to DIY Planer Stand with Storage

ANIKA'S DIY LIFE

About 7-8 months ago, I purchased a planer and it was the best decision ever! A new tool is always fun to purchase and I can never wait to use it.

It weighs 90 Lbs! It has been sitting on a dolly to use as a tool cart – which makes it easy to cart it around for sure but it’s hard to use.

How to DIY Planer Stand with Storage

Materials

– Lumber per the plans (2×4 and plywood) – 2 1/2″ pocket hole screws – 1 1/4″ pocket hole screws – 4 locking casters and washer/screws  – Drawer Pull – 16″ drawer slides – Kreg Quick Flip

STEP 1: PREPARE THE BOARDS

I cut the 2x4s on the miter saw and the plywood using a circular saw and the straight edge guide.

Step 2: Build the Frame

The entire frame is built using 2x4s with 2 1/2″ pocket hole screws and wood glue.

STEP 3: Build & Attach the Drawer

The simplest is to make a box. Ensure it is square and attach the bottom 1/4″ plywood using brad nails and wood glue.
