As we were designing the slat-wall

storage system, we kept coming up

with new suggestions for

compo-nents to add to the system. There

are lots of possibilities, but we

sim-ply didn’t have the space in the

magazine to show everything. So

here a couple of components that

that didn’t quite fit in the original

article. One is a mount for a shop

light, and the other is a vise table.

Both of them utilize the same

inter-locking beveled cleats that are

found on the other components.

Light Mount.

As you can see in

Figure 1. The light mounting

com-ponent hardly needs any

explana-tion. It’s nothing but a small

ply-wood panel mounted to a cleat. But

the simplicity is part of the beauty

of the design. You can screw a light

fixture directly to the panel and

then move it anywhere on the slat

wall that you like.

Bench Vise Table.

The vise table

shown in Figure 2 is the perfect

mounting spot for a light-duty vise

for general tasks. It’s made up of

just six parts. Start by cutting the

parts for the back and supports to

size. The top is made up of two

layers, but they don’t get glued

together until after the stand is

assembled. For now, cut the lower

layer to size and leave the upper

layer slightly oversize. (You’ll trim

it flush after assembly.)

Now you can glue and screw the

back, supports, and lower top layer

together. Once this is done, glue the

upper top layer in place. After the

glue is dry, you can trim the upper

layer flush with the lower layer

using a router and a flush-trim bit.

The last piece to add is the cleat.

Then you can place the table on the

slat wall and drill mounting holes

for bolting your vise to the table.

In order to clamp long workpieces

vertically, make sure that you

mount the vise so the rear jaw sits

in front of the edge of the table (see

detail ‘b’ at right).
