I just finished setting up my Sawstop station. Here it is:

You can see I've installed a Jessem Mast-R-Slide. The router table top is from a stand-alone router table that I disassembled.
For the fence, I Jointech's Sawtrain rails and Smart Fence, and a Jointech Clincher that I already had. (The latter is the bridge to which the fence is attached.)
In these pictures, the bridge (Clincher) is positioned so that when the fence is as far to the left it can go, it just touches the blade. In this position, I can rip material up to about 17.5" wide. If I need to do a wider rip, I have to move the bridge to the right. To do that, I simply lossen a knob and slide it down. The next picture shows the bridge moved all the way to the right end of the table. That permits a maximum rip of about 48".

This picture also shows (if you've got sharp eyes), that the maxium distance from the fence to the router arbor is about 17".
I also installed Wixey's Saw Fence Digital Readout. Here is a better pic of it:

I'll say more about the router table setup in a second posting.
To be continued...
