I wanted to make one for years and never got the "round tuit" I've been waiting for until last month lol. It's really nice to have a spot to lay the tape measure and allen wrench. I also have all the safety stuff right at the machine always (always had to walk to where I had them stashed and then they would get stacked on my bench after). so it was an upgrade.I'm working on a small box for a gift now too. there's a preview pic of it on the first page now and, soon, I'll post my sketchup drawing of it. I still have a lot to do until finished, but it's coming nice.
