T-track Accessory Storage Block

By: Erich Lage
Those short lengths of T-track can be put to good use around the shop.

W229 009f01 Stop blocks and hold-downs are everywhere in my shop. Most of the time, they’re piled away in a drawer not anywhere close to where I normally use them. I had some leftover pieces of T-track, so instead of tossing them, I put them to good use. I created a custom storage block for each of the tools that use the hold-downs. W229 009f01 enlarged In the photo here, you see the one I installed at my router table. I simply cut a groove in a scrap block and attached the T-track to it. Then I screwed it to the front apron of my router table where the hold-downs and stop blocks are tucked away, but close at hand. I also made a couple of small blocks for either side of my drill press, as well. But there, I used rare-earth magnets on the back side of the mounting blocks to hold them in place.
