The House Of Balsa Dust / Delta table saw

The large power tools are mounted on modified, standard dimension kitchen base cabinets, which originally had a drawer and a bottom storage compartment.
I cut the drawer section off at the bottom of the drawer opening, topped the cabinet with 3/8" marine plywood, and mounted the cabinet on casters.
The table saw doesn't have a built-in dust port, so I cut a hole in the plywood top 2" smaller than the base of the saw, and added a baffle in the storage compartment to form a dust chamber under the saw. The baffle seals the the storage compartment from the dust chamber.
I installed a vacuum hose adapter in the cabinet rear wall between the cabinet top and the dust baffle.
A hose runs from the adapter up to a blast gate in the dust collector piping.
