Have you had a look at Dennis from Hooked on Wood? He's got some great workshop ideas including a digital mitre station stop block thingy for very little money. https://hookedonwood.online/Miter-Saw-Station/

You've fitted your router table I see. How did you do that, and what about the router fence etc.

Possibly. It's on a stand and weights a ton.

This is how I built my playpen, sorry workshop. These are the layers, from the outside in. Feather edge fencing boards (horizontal) Breathable membrane (roofing membrane) 4 x 2 stud frame. PIR (celotex, Kingspan etc.) between studs. Vapour barrier (sheet of polythene) over walls and ceiling...

I just bought a used Xcalibur TSC which can take a dado stack. I've yet to use the saw, but even though it's 15 years old it's a huge upgrade to the Einhell I had. Apparently, it's a Harvey saw, which makes me wonder if you can get a US saw and change the motor

I'm newish to wood butchering. Not sure whether I just like all the tools, or actually like making things LOL. I'm currently building my retirement house, to stop me being bored in my retirement. Consequently, I'm not doing much woodwork, except the house, which is timber frame so, woodwork...

TBH I probably should have read the whole post before replying LOL. Any ideas about the crown guard or riving knife?

I've just bought an Xcalibur TSC-B with a 5/8" and was thinking about getting a screw on sleeve made to make it 30mm. I haven't explored the machine yet and didn't know it could be removed. How did you get on? Any idea where you can get spares form? Mine doesn't have a riving knife or crown guard,
