Re: Can Anyone Identify What These Parts Are?

Ameer,?

Previous posts have correctly identified the parts,

With regards o the length stop the heads of the bolts are intended to go in the slots of the 1100mm extension table with the leg
the 1st version did indeed have trapezoidal nuts but they were to easy to lose.

The tenoning plate was originally designed to fit in some pre drilled holes in the cast iron sliding table of the BF5 machines, with the introduction of the BF6 Aluminium table it was intended to be mounted using the tee slots in the table.
With regards to mounting the tenoning plate, originally they were supplied with flat plates with M10 treads to go in the table slots and M10 cap head Allen socket screws and washers to clamp them down.
I always found that it had a tendency to creep or twist when being tightened which was frustrating.

As I recall two strips of masking tape on the underside stopped it scratching the Aluminium and reduced the amount of movement.
Ultimately I bought two additional tee block for the table and a flip stop that mounts in the F rail for the crosscut fence and had a permanent set of mounting points for it in the mid position of the table.
I'm pretty sure I also had some special bolts, most likely these were jig bolts that would have been modified to clamp It down.

Rather foolishly I parted with mine to a friend which brings us to the moral of this story, Once you have forked out for a Felder accessory, never, ever part with it, you will regret it one day.

As a favour to those on the group who may be interested could you post a drawing of the plate with the dimensions and locations of the various holes and slots as I for one intend to have one made in the near future , albeit I will do some thing about the 40lbs weight of it.

I have one of those plates too and thought it might be a tenoning plate, but I couldn't find any references to it and I couldn't figure out how to mount it to the sliding table. Ironically I just made some tenon's today so I bad a home made plate of some plywood.? Low tech, but it worked. Does someone have a photo of how to mount the big metal one?
