Looking for a couple people to help assemble a work bench for the miter saw we have.

I plan to follow the tutorial and design provided here. -> http://blog.homedepot.com/diy-miter-saw-bench/

I plan to get most of the materials, but would like to borrow a kreg drill guide if somebody has one.

I also need a couple people to help get it all set up.

Let me know I plan to do the home depot run at 11, and to start on it at noon.

Looks great to me. I'm in if I'm not too jet-lagged to help. We could probably get more stability with proper joinery, but not as quickly. Also, this isn't exactly a normal workbench so it shouldn't have to deal with too much shearing force.

I have a Kreg drill guide and an associated clamp. I will bring with me Saturday morning. I should have some Kreg screws too. I don’t recall what is special about them. I’ll be at the space Saturday morning. Ken says we are gonna flip the door.

You beat me to it Mikel. Anyhow, I’ll still bring mine. I never used the guide I bought. Maybe you have some pointers.

Its easy to use, you just want to clamp everything well when putting in the screws.  I have some plugs too, those work well when stained or painted.

I also have a small trim router which is good for trimming up the edges of big things after it's put together.

I will be there early, like 10 am.

A Kreg would make this much easier (and it is "proper joinery" these days).
