Workbench serves as tablesaw outfeed, too
A hardworking workbench
The workbench in my single-stall garage shop does dual duty as both a workbench and an outfeed table for my tabesaw. As an outfeed table it was critical that my assembled workbench (with top) had to be about 1/4" shorter than the bottom edge of the miter-gauge grooves in my tablesaw top. When using a miter gauge in my tablesaw, the guide must just pass over the top edge of the workbench for clearance.

This is a great design, even better if the drawers slide both ways to allow access from either side, so you don't have to walk around the bench to get something out of the drawer.
