Under Shopsmith Storage

I had found those plans sometime back. I used them to provide "inspiration" for my under Shopsmith cabinet as I also did not like having the cabinet attached to the Shopsmith. With the Shopsmith fully lowered with the legs on the ground, there is just a little bit of clearance between the bottom tube and the tops of the my cabinet's sides. With the Shopsmith raised, it rolls freely away from the cabinet if need be, usually when I have to use it in vertical drill press mode. I used the horizontal boring feature to do the easiest dowel joints I have ever done to edge join two boards to make the top, sides, and bottom of my cabinet.
