WOOD Magazine’s Nailer Station plan is for a cabinet that organizes pneumatic and battery-powered nail guns, with additional storage for nails and accessories. The magazine’s project page links to the plan in the WOOD Store, where it is identified as a project from the September 2018 issue. The official description does not publish the full cut list or construction instructions, so confirm the plan’s details before buying materials or starting the build.
What the Nailer Station plan is for
WOOD Magazine describes the project as an easy-to-build cabinet for keeping pneumatic and battery-powered nail guns organized, with storage for nails and accessories. That makes it a shop-storage project rather than a plan for building a nailer or modifying one.
The official WOOD Magazine project page was updated January 8, 2024, and directs readers to the WOOD Store for the plan.
Where to find the plan and what is known about it
The matching WOOD Store listing is identified in search results as a plan featured in WOOD Issue 255, September 2018. A search-result snippet showed a $2.95 price, but that is historical listing information, not a verified current price. The store page’s present availability and file format are not established here; check the listing directly before purchase.

Dimensions and materials estimate
A secondary reproduction of the September 2018 plan gives the station’s dimensions as 27¾ inches wide by 12¾ inches deep by 33 inches high. It also gives an approximate materials cost of $50, excluding a hose reel, hose, or compressor. These details come from a reproduction rather than an inspected original plan, so treat them as provisional and verify them against the complete WOOD plan before purchasing stock or cutting it. The estimate does not establish that every builder needs to buy the excluded equipment.
The official project page does not provide a cut list, material specifications, joinery details, hardware list, or complete assembly sequence. Those construction particulars should come from the plan itself; they cannot be reliably inferred from its brief project description.

What to check before building
- Confirm the current plan listing, availability, and file format with the WOOD Store.
- Use the original plan to verify overall dimensions, stock sizes, parts, and hardware before buying materials.
- Check that the cabinet’s intended storage arrangement suits the mix and sizes of nail guns, nails, and accessories you need to store.
- Plan any hose reel, hose, or compressor separately: the secondary cost estimate excludes them, but does not establish that they are required components of the build.
