    Fence for Table Saw

    The length will allow me to achieve perfect parallel alignment with the blade, Something that is hard to achieve with the supplied fence. It will also let me use two vertical featherboards, as I have some really long bits of rail to run through. Sanding might be smooth enough, but as I'm making...

    Ok, will do! (y)

    Fence for Table Saw

    Cheers John. Good idea. I wasn't looking forward to using contact adhesive. The fence will measure about 600 mm x 200 mm appx, with a horizontal 30 mm channel for a T-track. So the bigger surface to laminate will be around 600 mm x 150 mm. As the laminate is not likely to warp, I reckon a screw...

    Fence for Table Saw

    I've managed to get a couple of bit of laminate flooring for free, from a job a mate had left over. So I reckon that will probably do the job, and keep the cost down. :)

    Fence for Table Saw

    Sadly, not long enough as I need 600 mm in one length. That would have been a cheap solution!

    Cheers. That's a good idea to check for damaged or incomplete stock. (y)

    Fence for Table Saw

    I've found lengths of 500mm which is affordable, but I need 600mm so would have to buy 1000mm length. That pushes the price up too much. UHMWPE Natural Sheet 1000 x 250 x 5mm £34.02 inc VAT + £7.14 delivery

    Fence for Table Saw

    If I can get hold of a couple of bits I think it would work well. I guess a good contact adhesive would be the best thing to stick it on to ply?

    Fence for Table Saw

    Yes, I had previously looked at this material. The downside is that is is difficult to bond and requires special treatment. Anything above 1mm get quite pricey. I'll see if there are any in my area. I want to keep the thickness of the cladding to no more than 5mm or 6mm if I can. I guess they...

    Fence for Table Saw

    I’m making a new fence for my table saw out of some leftover plywood, and It will end up being around 18mm thick so should be pretty sturdy. I’ve been looking at ways to make the face of the fence really smooth, and have come up with three possibilities. If I’ve missed anything, let me know...

    Router bit size

    Yes, that's right. I did look around to check out the cost of pre-made, but the height I need makes it very expensive. This place does the height - Heritage Skirting Boards | Victorian MDF Skirting | Skirting 4 U - but it comes out at £1769 for 25mm. As there are three other rooms planned for...

    Router bit size

    Yes, I saw a YouTube video of a guy using a Roman Ogee bit by hand on a board, so I think I'll do the same for this job. I'm going to be removing a relatively small amount of waste as I'll be making a bevel cut before routing. I have a table I made for my track saw which should work well for...

    Router bit size

    Cheers mark. I did wonder if it had anything to do with cutting circles, but couldn't get my head around how it would work. A quick online search shows Axminster Tools describing the product as being supplied with a Trammel Adaptor. The manual doesn't reference it like this but shows a tiny...

    Router bit size

    It's the T7. Cheers! The T7 seems to be a bit different. Here's what Trend have to say - So I suppose you can do it, but not the best choice for using with table.

    Router bit size

    It has a bolt in one end that unscrews, along with a split ring washer. I've never seen anything like it in any of the videos on Routers. You may be right about its purpose, but it doesn't seem to be a popular accessory. :unsure:
