Nice vid!
It just so hapens I picked one of these up a month or so ago. I haven't used the table yet, but I have the same concerns about it's stiffness and will probably do an AL one just like yours for it.
Well done on the narration too... sounds very professional.

Just a idea, but if you make your table a little smaller you can leave it attached to the saw and not have to remove it each time you want to use the saw in the cut off mode. This photo shows about four mods I have done to my saw. The removable jaw extension on the moving jaw, the jaw clamp bolt, the table and the use of clamping fixtures.

I gave the small table serious consideration, but on my saw I would need to make the small too small in order for it to fit when closed.
I did try hard to make it work, but it just wouldn't.
Besides, I like having more space to work with on the front side of the blade.
The catch tray is a cool idea!
