For cutting strips it helps to have long infeed and outfeed tables. I find it very worthwhile taking the time to get these done right

+1 on that, though I have used 'temporary' tables in the past. You can make something pretty sturdy with some plywood and 2x4s. Just screw it together and disassemble when you've finished ripping. Aluminum bar/angle bolted to the side of the saw enclosure can give attachment points for the table ends.

An alternative would be to put the plywood over the saw table (running the blade up through the 2 x 8 plywood sheet), but that would mean that your fence would need to be improvised from scratch.
