I want to build an extension table (which will have drawers & mounts and supports for a router table) for my contractor saw. It is likely that I will need to put the extension table, saw, and outfeed table against the wall.
The extension table, with the saw base and outfeed table will resemble an 'L' or a mirrored 'L' shape once connected, depending on which side the extension table will connect. If the former setup is chosen, then I could use the table saw fence as a router table fence. If the latter, then I'd have to forgo the router table & router table fence feature since it'd be too awkward and potentially too dangerous to use.
I'm not sure how the placement of the extension table will affect my ability to cut sheet-goods or very wide stock. The table saw blade tilts to the left (I don't think the choice of side will limit my miter cuts since stock can be flipped before cutting).
Is there a side the extension table should be on so that I can still cut sheet goods, wide stock, and have that router table? What compromises (if any) will I have to make?
