I'm under the impression it's better to have 3/4" pipe for the runs and 1/2" pipe for the drops, the former allowing volume and the latter allowing pressure. Better yet to even have a 2" diameter...

Sounds like it might've just been a freudian slip :D
Thanks, yeah, I do basically the same thing with my cabinet saw. Just open the overhead door, pop up the outfeed rollers, and outfeed outside. (There's also a good-sized awning overhead out there...
Here's one possible way to eliminate the 'outfeed space' needed for your planer. You can see on the right-hand edge of this picture where I run the stock of my 15" planer right out through the wall....
Glad to hear it, Dick, and good luck with your shop. Remember to keep the voltage drop (line distance) in mind.
I have had the 10" Jet 3HP cabinet saw for about 7 or 8 years now and couldn't be more thrilled with it's power, precision, fence, everything.
Hmm, I don't have that problem with mine. They seemed super-fussy to set up, but I did manage to them in precisional place.
Maybe later today I can get a pic of mine posted (and get a re-looksee...
Personally, even with the other excellent suggestions here, I'd spend the time necessary to adjust or fudge the miter saw until it makes perfect cuts (or get one that will).
Sometimes on cheaper...
I know you didn't ask, but I'd consider all the dust-catches a horizontal alignment will create.
You would normally do the sides first and trim them flush with a straight-fluted bottom bearing (pattern-type) bit, and then do the top so it overlaps the sides (think water) with a beveled bottom...
Here's a few pics, and oh, I forgot to mention rubber grommets for feet are important vibration-dampers, too.
The second pic gives you a decent shot of the (hydraulic-rated) damper-hose, it's...
I built an outside compressor booth and hard-piped it into my small garage-shop. It houses a stand up oil-less Porter Cable compessor.
The booth is elevated about 10" off of grade level for...
I stand where I have the most contol, I've never had a kick-back. Make sure your fence is set a few thousandths further from the blade at the back end, and when ripping crowned stock, keep the...
