        <![CDATA[<p>Okay &#8211; So far I have the following:</p>


	<p>Craftsman 10&#8221; Contractor Table Saw (which I really dislike)<br />Craftsman 12&#8221; Chop Saw<br />Craftsman 6&#8221; Jointer (Bench Top)<br />Craftsman 12&#8221; Drill Press (Bench Top)<br />Porter Cable 690 Router (Fixed/Plunge Base)<br />26&#8217;x22&#8217; (572sq&#8217;) of Garage Space (Minus washer/dryer, etc.) <br />9 Feet of workbench surface of which will be torn out ASAP!</p>


	<p>Now I need to build a chop saw station that will be appox. 10&#8217; long with cabinet storage underneath.  Next a bench top for my jointer and one for my drill press.  I like the simplicity of construction that Mark Spagnuolo (The Wood Whisperer) used for his Dead Flat Assembly Table using just MDF.  I priced MDF at a local hardwood suppler and it was about $30 for a sheet of 4&#215;8 of ultralight MDF.  $26 for standard MDF.  All of which is 3/4&#8221; thick.</p>


	<p>Anyone on the forum who has build the above cabinets/work stations, please post your pics for me to get a better idea of what I should include in the design.  Also, if there might be some better choices for building material that might surpass MDF but still be cost effective.</p>


	<p>Thanks</p>]]>
