This seems like an interesting idea for a portable Tormek stand:

Sorry, not much detail.

This might work even better. Plastic, so no worries about spilled water, adjustable height legs, easily carried. I bought one a few years ago at Costco, but I don't know if they still carry it. Also available cheaper without the adjusting legs.

Interesting, Mike.

The design seems clever and practical to me. I would opt for the adjustable legs. The reviewers give it a mixed bag. Amazon gives a thirty day full return on items. In my opinion, that makes it a safe bet.

Plus, it looks like it could have multiple uses around the home and shop.

Good find.

PS I have been concerned about you recently with the earthquakes in Alaska. I trust all is well with you.

It was a pretty good shake, but aside from the mess of stuff falling off of shelves, no real damage. Anchorage came through pretty well, the worst injury I have heard of was a broken arm, and some people cut by flying glass, but no fatalities. I was here for the big one (Magnitude 9.2) in 1964 - that one was like huge, slow ocean waves and this one was like having a freight train speeding by outside the window.

I use a hospital bedside stand. Has 3 plastic drawers and on casters. Cheap and works for me.

Jeff,

"Cheap and works for me". I like that, very practical.
