    I really avoid using my CMS in the shop because I haven't found a good dust control solution. It sprays a huge cloud of dust and chips that covers everything within 10 feet. I much prefer the table...

    I just picked one up last month. Tools Plus (http://www.tools-plus.com/) is significantly cheaper than anywhere else. I'd suggest giving them a call to see what can be done about shipping up North.

    The problem with doing projects like this for friends is that someone is always going to be unhappy. Why do you think he/she asked you to do it instead of going to Pottery Barn and buying a similar...
