Mobile Workstand
Basic Description

animated intro
This simple workstand is both stable and mobile. It provides a great surface for cutting, routing, sanding, assembly etc. You can roll it around your workspace by simply tipping one end a few degrees to engage the wheels. In the resting position, the wheels are disengaged and this is the key to its stability. There are no obstructions on the underside of the worktop which allows for efficient clamping. These mobile workstands work very well in pairs, so after you finish your first one, you may want to build another!

Measure the distance between the legs and cut 2 shelf supports out of the remaining lumber. Predrill 4 clearance holes in the ends of each support. Rest one end on top of the caster extensions and clamp the other end so that the shelf support is level to the ground. While clamped, drive in the 2 1/2" (7cm) screws. The final panel will span between these two shelf supports and increase the rigidity of the workstand dramatically.
