Accessory Wing For The Tablesaw

Sweet idea, do you foresee possible problems with wood expansion in the slides though?

Ahh good question. There may be some expansion. But I made the fit so that it was not loose or slack, but did allow for some expansion. It is 50 degrees moist and rainy here and I think the would is expanded as much as it will. If by chance it does expand to the point of making it hard to slide in and out. That arm pulls out completely from the table, all I would need to do is remove it and finely tune it to allow for easy operation when expanded or contracted… Point is, I made it to where I could address any future issues if needed.

Very nifty, indeed, Laney. You definitely won’t get any sag outta that router insert.

Very good design! I guess it’s nice to use your table saws fence for the router. Very cool!

Good concept, good project, and another good video, Laney! I really like the slide-out roller support.

AJ I am not using the tablesaw’s fence for the router, I have a dedicated router fence with a split fence design.. I forgot to show it in the video.. I will do a follow up about it.

Very clever. Inspires me to adapt the concept to my old Unisaw. Thanks for sharing.

Why didn’t you just cut down the old router plate instead of making a new one ?

-- Lumberdog.. Michigan

Lumberdog, I made a new one because the old one when it was origionally made, I had cracked it and figured while i was making a new table , might as well make a new plate instead of cutting down the old one that ha a defect in it.
