In this article, you will find a wide collection of miter saw workbench table plans. I have included options from rolling mobile miter saw cart stations, to the more built-in style of miter saw workbenches for a garage shop. You will be able to find some really great options to build a miter saw stand that best fits your needs.
Miter saw workbench stations are such an integral upgrade to your shop. By building a stand, your work will be more efficient and accurate, which is something that is so valuable when creating woodworking projects.
In fact, I built a mobile miter saw station a few years ago and I’m so glad I did. I built it when I upgraded my miter saw to the 12 inch Dewalt Sliding Compound Miter Saw. These two upgrades (the DWS 779 Chop Saw and the mobile miter saw station) helped me create better quality pieces in a shorter amount of time. I highly recommend both of them!
It’s important to note that you don’t have to have a very expensive miter saw to make quality pieces. I used a 7 1/4″ Ryobi Miter Saw for years and for countless projects before I bought a nicer one. It got the job done (to say the least) and was truly a great starter miter saw. It’s still sitting in the corner of my garage because I just can’t bring myself to get rid of it!

Things to Consider When Choosing a Miter Saw Station Plan
Location of Miter Saw Station
You will want to determine whether or not your miter saw needs to be mobile or stationary. I have included 3 different types of plans for whatever your needs are. They are:
- Built-In Miter Saw Stations for those with a large wall and looking for something permanent
- Table Saw / Miter Saw Workbench Stations for those looking for a space saver and looking for a place to store your table saw too
- Mobile Mitre Saw Plans for those looking to be able to roll your miter saw around (or out of the shop!)
Extras for the Miter Saw Bench
Stop Blocks – these are the ones I use and they are so helpful in creating repeatable cuts on your miter saw
Dust Collection – you can get a very robust dust collection system like this Jet System, or something as simple as a smaller shop vacuum that you connect to your miter saw.
