A thick top is good for mass and, as I said before, if you use bench hooks it's pretty much a necessity. Otherwise, only the front apron needs to be thick, and the back, too, but mostly for cosmetics... |

Your Miter Table looks great!
When I bought my Craftsman radial arm saw in 1970, I also bought a Miter Top accessory. See attached picture.
