When this unit is set up and running, it works as two machines sharing one top: an exposed circular saw blade sits flush on one side for rip cuts, while a plunge router mounts inverted under the other side for edge and profile work. A metal rip fence runs across the whole 900 by 600 mm surface, reaching from one tool to the other, and the standing height is a comfortable 850 mm.
Не своими РУКАМИ built the frame from profile steel tubing in 60x30 and 30x30 sections, cut on a horizontal bandsaw, welded up, then ground smooth with an angle grinder. The top is laminated plywood covered with laminate and trimmed with aluminum angle, and squareness was verified with a machinist square. The legs are steel tubing with pivot stops, painted black, and they fold flat so the compact unit stores against a wall, dropping from 850 mm to just 300 mm.
Several details stand out to me. The hand-held saw was disassembled to remove its base plate, then mounted on custom welded pivot brackets with bearings, with blade elevation handled by a threaded rod crank and an M12 stud installed for lifting the saw. The fence is welded from steel tubing with an over-center toggle clamp, rides on SBR20 cylindrical rails with matching carriages, and mounts to a linear rail with a measurement scale, a red-handled locking clamp and a hand crank for fine adjustment. The router sits in a custom insert plate with height set from above using a hex wrench, hinged side panels carry latches and a master power switch, and hold-downs were made from clamps.
One thing is left open: no riving knife or similar safety attachment appears anywhere on the unit, a shortcoming the maker has acknowledged and promised to try to correct. The plywood thickness is also unclear, since the description says 12 mm while the timeline says 10 mm.
