Tks Will! I initially intend to use my existing Hartville fence, so I'll be looking to spend <$100 for just the table ... I am still waiting for them to tell me the price for the mounting hardware & vacumn attachment... I may ended up taking the $149 option instead ...
Tks, Bob ... frankly, this is information overload

But I read it a few times and I think I finally get it. If I'm taking the Hartville path, I'm sure I'll practice a few times on some scrap board first.
Tks again, will report in when (saw)dust has settled.
Cheers
John
