I thought some of you might be interested in a drawer I fitted to my Myford industrial stand. Having tried various ways of storing tool holders (and not happy with them!), I thought the industrial stand I had was wasting space in the upper part of the void below the drip tray. I think the pictures speak for themselves. The drawer is fitted with push close / open runners and was eventually powder coated to match the lathe. So far so good and now plenty of space in there to keep the swarf tray clear!

All that remains to be done is to consider fitting a plate to protect the RHS runner – probably not needed!

Very nice Matt, something I have been intending to do for a while, but haven't got round to it yet. Regards, Michael

Looks to be a well executed and worthwhile useful modification.

Nice idea Matt. Definitely thinking about it. I also have a long bed – the previous owner added a door.

However, I'm getting really fed up with keeping stuff up top and the difficulty cleaning down. Thanks for posting.

Nice job Matt; I need to do something similar with the Warco stand that I got with my WM250, as usual it's one of those 'round2it 'jobs. I know there are other Warco owners who have already done the mod' … need to look back through posts, unless some one has a quick link ?

George.
