I bought a new switch, and put an extension on it, to make it easier to flip on and off,
(the extension is the barrel of a Bic pen, cut shorter, slipped on and epoxied to the toggle switch, with green tape, for the green look on it)
I used this same trick one time on a contractor saw and left the pen barrel full length.
I finished up the wiring, I think the green wires look pretty cool.
I will be getting the motor bearings tomorrow.


This table is the original from the manufacture, it is edge glued Maple panel 1 inch thick , it’s not perfectly flat, but it’s close
