    Nice work! Nice outfeed and plenty of room for working and taking care of large sheet goods. That's a bit of work that will reward you with every use. Good job!

    BTW, Welcome aboard!

      Looks like you added a lot of funtionality to that little saw. I'm sure it makes thing easier for you. Nice work.

        Nice work Chris! It makes the saw and router table much more useable.

          Looks good to me. All that room has got to make the saw and router more "user friendly".

              Don't you need to extend the miter slot through the sides of the table
              top to make the slot usable? Otherwise the miter gage travel is extremely limited.

              Or, maybe you seldom use the miter slot and it doens't matter.

                Loring said the same thing I was doing to mention, but of course, easier to say that then do it...

                  No, you can turn the miter gauge around so that the long end is toward you.
