Hello Ron. I don't want to piss in your cornflakes, but...
Unless you plan on getting into woodworking as heavily as you are into radios, the saw you need to make the tops is very cost prohibitive. My saw is a 10-inch belt drive with a 3 foot by 4 foot table, and it would be just barely capable of the cuts you want to make. Please don't get suckered into one of those table top, direct drive, plastic housing $199.00 pieces of fecal matter. Woodworking is my main hobby, and my saw was $600.00 15 years ago. With table saws, you truly do get what you pay for.
I would suggest you find a custom cabinet making shop and pay them to cut a couple of tops for you. They have panel cutting saws that would make quick work of it, and you would have several hundred dollars still in your pocket. Or, provide me with very precise measurements and I could attempt to cut a couple for you. It's no real issue for me. You make the call. Just my two cents worth.
On a brighter note, your risers are built. Just have to do a finish sanding on them and drill the mounting holes through their sides. Should be ready to ship in a day or two. Take care, Gary
