    Parallel guides compatible with Mafell track saw mt55

    I've a Mafell track saw mt55 and am wondering what's the best functioning parallel guide for it. The TSO parallel guides seem to work great. Can they be made to work on a Mafell track... or is there any other parallel guides that work like the TSO do, ie... A spring toggle clamp to lock it down?

    Louvre Roof System

    Google changed since I was at college and I can't find anything anymore. Thanks. Yeah, it would need to be heavy duty but I am also thinking of storm/bad weather over blind/shutter that can be pulled over/down the blade section. A scaled up and horizontal version of the video below.

    Bench vise orientation

    I'm planning out my bench and all photos I see of benches and their vices, (from my feeling) are the wrong way around... Like in the image below, to cut a piece of wood in the vice level. It has to project out into the open air, on the left-hand side. If on the right-hand side the bench gets'...

    Thanks all for your replies. I'll still research this... as now I feel I need to quantify what "good extraction" is? The router and lift in it's own little under top cabinet, with door and extraction on the bottom a funneled cabinet?
