Show me your table saw workstations!

[T.J. Mahaffey]

I'm trying to decide on a contractor saw work center.
I bought a plan from WOOD magazine a while back and although it is very fancy and cool, I'm a bit worried it might be too complex for me at this point. I'm not sure.

SO, I thought I would get everyone's feedback on this sort of project. Because I have a small shop, my main criteria are to have these things included in the design:

1. Built-in, *enclosed* router table wing, with hook up.
2. Enclosed contractor saw dust collection, with hook up.

I've found a less complicated cabinet in an older ShopNotes issue, but the router table wing isn't enclosed.

Let's see yours!
(Links to plans and your feedback on building yours would be great!)

This is my setup. I have some old base cabinets I used for a outfeed table. I have the 52" unifence on the right side of the Delta Contractors saw and a router table (sort of) on the left.

[Kurt Voss]

Here's my setup. The bench and right sided TS table are made from a salvaged door. The router table came from Woodpeckers.

I think I have a photo I'll try to email to you. I'm challenged with this magic box stuff.

T.J, you spoke of the Wood article. I build it for my contractor (Craftsman) saw, here's some pics of it. I no longer own it, (up graded to cabinet saw) It really wasn't that difficult and made big difference in dust collection.I made the inside is cabinet sloped and the dust port is on the other side. The guy who bought it added a router table on the left side. By removing the left wing. hope it helps.......

Here is my table saw on a mobile base. The outfeed table is still under construction with only the 12" portion currently attached. A router is mounted under the right extension wing. I will soon build drawers into the cabinet that is supporting the right extension wing. My cross cut sled is currently on the table saw.

Don,
Nice SawStop stealth gloat!!

Here's mine. I picked up a bunch of almond colored sheets of particle board and came up with this. I based it upon the one that was in Wood magazine a couple of years ago. The casters are double locking from Hartville tool and work very well.

That's a great design Greg and I've got the exact same saw. Do you have any more pics and/or design specs you could share?

[Bob Nazro]

The work station consists of a 1023 Left Tilt cabinet saw with a 50" side table and a 36" outfeed table. The outfeed table is also a storage cabinet. There is an additional set of drawers under the side wing that hold a tenon jig, blades, cross cut jigs and sevaral guides.

I'd really like to see more, too, Greg. I think I like your design even better than any commercial plans I've seen.

I built this just the tablesaw and a hand held Router

Here are more shots of my ts station.
