Re: Home-brew table extension rails for off-brand machines
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýTom, on 2 of my machines the top of F bar is 11mm below surface of machine table. i was going from memory so it is 11mm for me but others have stated that they mounted 10mm below. FWIW, the 40mm wide felder mounting bar center line is 35.5mm below jointer top as mounted on my machine (11mm top to top distance). imran On Dec 5, 2020, at 2:01 PM, tom@... wrote:
?Thanks Joe, Imran, and Chris, ?this is all great information.? Chris, that diagram is exactly what I was looking for. For reference, the band saw I'm currently using is a Laguna LT14 SUV, and has a table ~35mm in thickness. Going by the document you've scanned, it looks like the Aigner bars would?just work, I would just want to be careful that I'm only using table extensions with the leg support.? For reference, it looks like the Felder bars have the fastener centered 25mm below the top of the bar, which in turn should be ~11mm (10-12mm) below the table surface, so I'm inferring that the holes should be centered ~36mm below the table surface. <IMG_1104.jpeg> ?Imran, you mentioned setting the bar 10-12mm below the table surface. Based on the Felder aluminum extension table, I was planning on setting the bar 11mm below table surface. That being said, yes in a perfect world I'd want all of the bars to match, do you know what the drop is on the Felder machines where the bar is integral/milled into the table surface? I have a KF700SP on order that I could measure, but it won't arrive until January and I'd like to get these bars installed before then.? -- Tom Gensmer Heritage Home Renewals, LLC Minneapolis, MN |
