   If you search the archives at Shopnotes and American woodworker, I know the both have published plans. I built the one from American Woodworker several years ago and I really like it.

   Cool, thanks.  I can't find the one at American Woodworker.  Perhaps they got rid of it?

   How will you get around the back fence rail?  I also have a TS3650 and would be interested in what you find out.  Tom

   I'm not as worried about the fence rail as I am about the motor hanging off the back of the saw and the splitter being in the way. I am going to build a cart shown in Mathew Teague's book "Projects For Your Shop." Hopefully, I can find a way to modify the outfeed table so it will fit.TFBTW--couldn't find a picture of the saw station on FWW's web site. Hmm....Toolfanatic (a.k.a.

   To get around the back fence rail you need to extend the edge of the outfeed table back beyond the point of the rear rail. You can do this by attaching vertical plywood panels to either side of the saw cabinet which extend out well past the rear of the saw. then attach the outfeed table to them. you still need to cut a hole in the outfeed table for the motor to clear when tilted. you also need a wide slot for the blade guard/slitter and slots for the miter guage.

   Makes sense.  I do not use my factory splitter/blade guard because it does not line up well with the blade and is more dangerous on the saw than off.  I do use a zero clearance insert and an aftermarket splitter.  Tom"Notice that at no time do my fingers leave my hand"

   I just built an outfeed cart for my general contractors saw last weekend. Four 4x4's for the uprights, and MDF sheets for the base, top, and shelf. The main problem with outfeed tables on the contractors saws is the motor will hit them when you tilt to 45' unless you add a relief to the underside. With my cart, I can just move it out of the way.
   I really wanted to build a nice attached outfeed table, but I think the cart is easier and ultimately a better idea. Besides, if you do decide to make the 'real' outfeed table, you can always place a benchtop tool on the cart.
