I have limited space in my garage/shop so I combined my SawStop and router table into one and added casters.  I started with a purchased design but the plans lacked the storage that i was looking for so I built the base in the plans and then I was on my own.  The storage and dust management was critical to me.  Thanks!

What specific pictures would you like to see? What looks like a drawer directly under the saw is actually a dust chamber. I put a false front on for looks. There's a dust port under the motor on the back and I've also made a plate out of hardboard to cover the openings around the motor to improve the dust collection. Let me know what specific pictures you'd like to see and I'll be happy to post them. I'm on a trial membership for (finewoodworking.com) so if you don't hear from me you can also find my saw on lumberjocks.com. I can update pictures on lumberjocks at any time. Thanks.

I have seen the picutres of the router side of the station, but I have not seen any pictures for the tablesaw. Can you provide some detailed pictures on the table saw side of the station?

BronkoB,
I posted some updated pictures of the router portion of the table. The router is attached to the plate and I'm able to adjust the height of the bit with a hex wrench from the top of the table. I still need to get to the router and unlock the latch but it beats pulling the router out above the table to change the bit. I intend to purchase one of those expensive riser plates in the future because they have a quick release feature that will save my wrist from all the turning.

With my router fence I'm able to pull the dust down through the table via that hole you see in the picture. My router fence tunnels the dust to that hole and out a port in the back of the saw. I've always hated that hose sticking out the back of the fence so I thought of a way to do away with it. for a better detailed description on my idea go to this link. There are pictures of my dust collection scheme posted.

I am about to do this same thing on a new saw but without the cabinetry. You did a beautiful job.
