Re: 45 Deg Setup Square


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Hi Max?

Yes outrigger on the lead edge on K975. Jason, I believe has 2 KF700s. My K975 has no indexing for angles. My 2002 KF700 is now shaper use only but I bought it with 2m slider w/o outrigger .

Imran?

?Unless I am missing something Imran you have the same set up as Jason ,, outrigger on the lead edge?

Mark, That is what I am leaning towards. I would not buy a large square unless it came with accuracy spec and if it did I probably won¡¯t be able to afford it. So I am going to order 1/4¡± uhmw/polyethylene 1¡¯x3¡¯. Once by trial and error I have 45, I will cut a 45 deg square. uhmw in that size is under $30.

?Imran, is your angle scale not calibrated? Like i said I get good enough results with the scale but was thinking that it would be easy enough to set your fence by trial/error once you are happy with it make a gauge block out of wood that you could put between something (like the framework of the out rigger) and the fence to set it., it¡¯s a bit agricultural but would work¡­

I have what you shared and that is what I used however it¡¯s long side is 6¡± and I had that along the xcut fence. So 4¡± along the blade. I have Brian¡¯s too but it does not have a 45. So was looking for something with ~10-12¡± for the short side so I get good coverage if the blade plate.

?Imran, you might consider something like this:


Or get Brian¡¯s square.

Then use a dial indicator against the leg like this

Thanks Jason. Unfortunately, I do not have the indexing feature on my K975. Just the miter scale on middle extrusion of the outrigger.

I routinely use the 45¡ã pin stop for the long crosscut fence on the KF700. I always do this with the fence in the front position, closest to the operator side. I always prefer this for cutting solid wood. I ensure the blade is square to the slider then cut all my miters at that setting, not bothering to go 45¡ã the other direction. As mentioned before, cut the Hoffman keyways glue and your done. It's plenty accurate for frames up to 5' x 7' in my experience.
