I like using the Rousseau table saw stand for my Makita 8.25, I routed a lip into the side table and drop in my plunge router on an insert, the fence works for both as I put a wood extention on the backside with a cutout for the router bit. I use the outfeed table as a work station for changing the shape of parts I am making. The jig saw, power planer, drill, all have brakets so I can set them down still moving without damage, these and other tools plug into the 2 duplex outlets on the side of the table saw with a 40' 10/3 cord for the whole shebang. The compound miter sits on a Trojan stand, with the wings it opens to 13' wide. It also has a long cord and a set of outlets for plugging multiple tools, lights, ect. I also made a 12" bandsaw and jointer with a single motor that gets switched and sits on a sawhorse, though it hardly gets out on the site. The hardest part is finding a suitable location for the portable shop that isn't out in the back 40. I think I really have to be organized, otherwise I'm damn slow, keep on making that dust.
