I'm building up a table saw outfeed/extension/router table around my saw. I'm trying to maximize size but still keep it reasonable size table. I'm using my Incra Ultra fence and had a question on my lift positioning.

The extension table portion where the lift and Incra are going to be positioned is ~ 24"x 53". I want to place the lift with the long axis on the length of the table (53") which will position the plate short axis normal to the fence. This is opposite what I normally see, am I missing some detail or would this workout okay?

I don't think I'm making my thoughts clear and the screenshot I attached above may be confusing, here is a better drawing of my table.

The light colored field at the top is the saw, the gray colored fields are the extension/router table. I plan on attaching my Incra fence on the bottom right area of the gray table. This is being built around a Hammer K3 Winner sliding TS, so the slider portion of the saw is above the light colored area and not shown and the saw blade is at the top edge of the light field.

I would be standing at the bottom of the gray table when using the router.

No, perpendicular to the saw fence.
