Abstract
An adjustable power tool attachment for table saws comprises an extension table to enlarge the table saw work surface, and a power tool attached to the bottom of a drop-in plate inserted into the extension table. The power tool can be vertically adjusted to a desired position, and can be lowered below the extension table surface. The table saw and power tool can be used sequentially, and the table saw fence can be used to guide boards or other workpieces to the table saw or power tool. A dado attachment or other power tool can be used in convenient proximity to a table saw for sequential operations, without the user replacing the table saw blades with other cutting elements, or duplicating expensive equipment.
