Re: Adding a new Incra fence
Here's a little twist on the Incra fence... I generally reverse this set up and use on the left side of the blade facing the right for a router table, but it can also be used as a table saw fence. The parts here are from a Craftsman 22811, which is modeled after the Ryobi BT3100. I just mounted some...

Adapting Ryobi rails to SS. Alternative to 520 rails?
Hi folks: Here's an idea for an alternative rail system to the 520. My main table saw is a Craftsman 22811, which is modeled after the Ryobi BT3100. As many of you probably know, the Ryobi BT3000/3100 has a pretty loyal following. I had some extra rails I purchased years ago for an extended table an...

Re: Today in the shop (Shaper Origin made ZCI)
A while back I enlisted the forums help for some of the dimensions for this and finally got around making one. Still has to be tested but if my dimensions are right then it should work. Here is the picture of it: 20181008_182539_resized.jpg Ed Hello: I own the shaper origin. Do you happen to have t...

Re: PDF of shopsmith 555653 fence
Anyone have a PDF of the shopsmith 555653 fence? I'd like to build one for my jointer, and need the specifics. Thanks! Troy Sorry! I can't help with a PDF but even if I could what I have is unlike what you show in this image. The holes in mine are completely different (just different vintage, I am ...

Re: Cart with lift assist for accessory tools
What about using an engine hoist, moves around easily, won't have any problems with weight, mechanical advantage should be super easy, any SPT is way under what an engine wgt is...since it can lift an engine high enough to clear a motor bay, should have no problem with the SS height. HF has cheap o...

Re: Cart with lift assist for accessory tools
IIWM, I would build a mobile stand for the SPT, put the same size pulleys on both the SPT and SS. Push the stand next to the SS to align the pulleys, run a belt to the SPT to power it. No lifting involved just have to adjust distance for correct belt tension before locking the stand in place. This ...

Re: Cart with lift assist for accessory tools
Thanks for the reply. Suitable places to hang a hook are not a problem. I'm in a basement shop, so plenty of floor joist that can easily handle 60 pounds. Admittedly the only item that's a real problem is the joiner. The bandsaw is a little bit on the heavy side, but still manageable. I've actually ...

Cart with lift assist for accessory tools
I'm curious if anyone has constructed some kind of a lift assist cart for help with mounting the various shop Smith accessories, bandsaw, jointer, etc? At nearly 60 pounds the joiner is a bit too much for me, and the bandsaw is not too far behind at 45 or so. I would think something like a linear ac...

Re: Machine Height
I use a track saw for breaking down sheet goods, so doubt I'll be dealing with many larger pieces. I have a Festool MFT top I use. It works great and creates dead accurate 90 degree cuts due to the the CNC holes in the top. Love it!
