: By the way, the dado blade really made this project fun and easy.

Did you ever consider having it on lockable castors, and/or having something that opened on one end? Then you'd be able to store full 12' lumber in it. Slide it out a bit, open the end, and slide out or in your lumber.

Just a thought.
