ShopNotes 7

If space is limited, one solution is to build this compact version of the table saw station.

RIP FENCE. Here again, the idea is to start with a T-square rip fence. But this fence has a smaller rip capacity (28"), so the guide rail is shorter.

ROUTER TABLE EXTENSION. This means that the extension table is smaller. Even so, there's still plenty of room to add a router table and fence.

TWO CABINETS. Since the overall size of the work-surface is smaller, you'll only need to build two cabinets instead of three. Just be sure to make the two end cabinets that are designed to house the caster assemblies.
