Can Anyone Identify What These Parts Are?
I have no idea what these parts are, or if they even go with the equipment I have. Quick background: got an early 2000's KF700 and AD 741 from a family friend's late husband. She had no clue what parts went to what, and so I'm trying to piece together what parts I have.
Pictures are better than words! I suspect this machined cast iron plate doesn't go to the felder stuff, but i could be wrong? This looks like some of the aluminum accessory table items, but I just can't figure out what this goes to? Thanks in advance! |

开云体育Ameer,The metal thing is tenon plate. The other things are stops that mount in the grooves of extension tables. They can be used for doing stopped grooves on the shaper or used as length stops. ?Yours are odd int hat there are nuts protruding from the bottom. ? Joe

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?

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.

Okay I think I got this one figured out. I can put also mount the extension fence on the slider for a parallel stop.
I'll have to toy around with the tenoning plate a bit, I do have the allen head cap screws and metal blocks with threads used to mount it to the slider. Good advice on using masking tape as I'm sure in my hands that heavy plate will end up scratching the aluminum slider. I can try to mock up a drawing of the plate for reproduction. There are several tapped holes and I'm not sure what the thread pitch is on those. |
开云体育Ameer,
All the threads will be standard metric threads, The two pairs of holes at front should be M8x1.25 for mounting the guard plates. The two large holes will be M20 for the hold down post. All the other holes are for the fence mounts which I am sure are M10x1.5 Sent from my Windows Phone From: Ameer Navidi Sent: ?15/?01/?2021 17:32 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [FOG] Can Anyone Identify What These Parts Are?
