The Woodshop Shed

Tablesaw base/assembly/outfeed table

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


I got this saw a few years back and it comes on a folding stand. I quickly realized that this was pointless in a shop and sold the base. I built this new base from 2 sheets of Purebond Maple plywood I found on sale at HD. The top is a 2” torsion box from 1/2” MDF with a replaceable 1/8” hardboard top. The cabinet section is 50” long and 29” wide. The top drawer is for drills, drivers, nailers, etc. I keep my sanders in the second drawer and circular saw, jigsaw etc in the bottom drawer. The side cabinet is for an air compressor and I put 2 holes in the back to bring the air and power out the side. I have a hose coil on the “backside” of the table. The whole thing is on casters to easily move it around the shop. The saw is sealed up with foam and sits on a plywood shelf with a 4” dust port in it. This tees into the 2.5” hookup off the blade hood in the saw and off to a 5” DC hose. Collection below the table is really good with this setup. The added heft also eliminates almost all of the vibration/flimsiness usually associated with job site saws.Thanks for looking and I hope this inspires a few of you.Nick
