    to help keep the foam insulation on the table when cutting down the full sheets, use some of the command strips for hanging posters. They're removable and hold well enough to keep it from slipping around.

    All the "thumbs down" votes are actually cabinet makers who are upset they didn't think of half of the tips John uses in his videos. Nice work, John.

    Great video. I happen to have the same table saw and the portable router table you have. You might be pleased to know that if you drop the plastic legs from the table, you can mount it perfectly in the table saws right side (the fence floats right over it as well). It provides more surface for the saw and serves as a convenient "small shop" feature.

    Those small fillets in the toe kicks really make a difference! Good build, I really liked your logical approach.
