After seeing the new workshop solutions I had to build this onto my General tablesaw.

I had to make some minor adjustments to the design as my wing was not as large as the stopsaw.  I also had to mount the table directly to the rails instead of being able to adjust it up or down.  Lastly I moved the dust collection into the fence due to the smaller wing size.

For the router plate I used the rockler plate with my Porter Cable 891 router.

I also added the dust collection to the top of the fence and have had really good luck with it.
