Introduction
For a lot of DIYers, spending thousands of dollars for one professional-
quality power tool is not an option. Most of us have limited budgets and there
are a lot of tools that we need to buy. The high-end table and miter saws are well
over a thousand dollar. While we can get by just fine with some of the lower
priced models, the higher end tools tend to come with some pretty sweet
features. I built this table saw station to capture some of those sought after
features of the more expensive models.
This table saw station is designed to accept a smaller, portable contractor
grade saw. Contractor grade table saws are significantly lower priced, but nearly
all of them have very small work surfaces, which makes cutting larger pieces of
wood a challenge. This station will give you a much larger work area.
Another improvement to note is the fence. Although you’ll either have to
buy a separate unit or build your own, having a larger, more accurate fence will
give you better results on your projects and will be easier to use.
These plans are designed to be fully customizable. You’ll just need to take
three quick measurements of your table saw, plug them into the form and the
parts list will adapt to the appropriate dimensions to accommodate your saw.
If you get stuck on any particular part of these woodworking plans, feel free
to email me at John@ourhomefromscratch.com with any questions you may
have.
I hope you enjoy the challenge of building this project and get as much use
out of this table saw station as I have.

John
