Excellent job. . My shop would be much better if I had one but I'll not be doing that at my age (86).

UPDATE: I modified the belt sander storage a tiny bit. The original plans put a small strip of wood on the top to keep the belt sander from sliding off the back of the cart. (Circled)

However, I found that it still slid off towards the side, especially when I habitually grab it to try to move the cart and inadvertently pull it off. So, with the belt sander in place, I marked for two 3/8" holes to align with the holes in the miter slot on the table. Then I glued two short dowels into the top, just long enough to stick up through the holes in the table. Now the sander cannot move in either direction
