    I've been hoarding wood AND.... saws. As most know, it gets messy with the bar oil and frankly I like to keep a clean shop. I bought these plastic trays on Amazon (they come in a 2-pack) and some PPG pigmats. Less mess and much neater look. Before, I was using cardboard and it gets quite oily after a bit. Maybe this can help someone else?!

    I do something similar using boot trays.

    I put corregated cardboard between saw and tray to catch oil drips.

    If I saw the picture right each saw has its own try?
    I think that’s a great idea
