I have finally saved enough of my fun money to go get a Rigid 4512 TS that I have been wanting for some time now. This will also happen while I am effectively remodeling my storage area in the back of my garage. I use my garage for motorcycle parking as well as my woodshop with the bikes removed so the bulk of my tools will be stored in the back in a shed that is attached to the garage and has a doorway opening leading to the garage so the tools can easily move between the two on mobile bases.
I've wanted a router table of some kind for a while now but as the table saw has space for a router insert, I'm curious if it is better to use the table saw as a combo table or build a separate router table with wheels that I can store in the back room as well? I don't do a terrible amount of woodworking, but I do enough to justify this new table saw. I already have a router, but if I really like the table mounted setup I may get a second one so I have the table mounted router and a freehand router without having to go through too much hassle of removing and reinstalling.
