Hi Folks.
I'm new to this forum and new to woodworking in general. We're in the process of reflooring a large area with chestnut floorboards. We have a DeWalt 771 for crosscuts etc, and an Elu as above for ripping down widths for each run. I've constructed a table about 2.5 metres in length to pass the boards on to but at 25mm thickness they can be quite awkward - maximum length is around 2.5 metres. The Elu works fine but I think the fence is a bit lacking in stability. I was wondering if anyone could give me a clue on extending the fence so it could be fitted to both ends of the table metal table. I have searched the parts sites and I don't believe there's an extension for the fence. At over £70 I don't fancy butchering another fence, but it might be the only choice. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks for your time.
Mac.
