It would have been interesting to see the way the jig held the workpiece near the blade. Unfortunately the sliding stop completely obscured the cut...

As always Stevel, "Good show mate'! (Albeit too short) I have several questions: 1. The piece that slides in the grooves of the sliding table; that you attach your modified Kreg clamps; came with the saw? Or did you make them? Or did you purchase them from another source? 2. How much travel does your rip fence move with one complete turn of the wheel? I want to add this awesome feature to my after purchase slider that I attached to my Powermatic. I have an old 6' acme threaded rod; that has a pitch of 1/4" per revolution. I will use it to drive the modified fence. But in viewing previous videos where you used that wheel, it appeared to my eyes that the fence was traveling faster than 1/4" per revolution. Am I correct? 3. When you are using your fantastic "Franz and Fritz" sliders, why not drill a hole in the right side ("Fritz") slider, over one of the table slots; and using one of the Kreg pieces (mentioned above) in the track, and using an appropriate knob and embedded screw; through the hole in the Fritz; clamp down hard on its position in the table; after you have held the Fritz, Franz and stock; tightly against your outrigger fence? (Hope my question made sense) This would insure that the stock was held very tightly no matter its size.

Pat, 1) Those tee nuts were designed and built by a friend who passed away a number of years ago. I am not set up to do metal working but have friends who do. 2) The rip fence travels 50mm (2") with one turn of the handwheel. I am pretty sure it has a gearbox or chain drive to get the fence to move so rapidly. 3) Since building the F&F jig, I have never seen the need for a holddown clamp for the jig or the workpiece. The RUWI jig has me intrigued not for the holddown per se but the ability to do various angled cuts. If they had a stop system, I would probably get one.

Steve, I love the videos, please keep them coming. I have a question that's not related to the videos, I'm building a miter saw station, to sit on top of some cabinets I'm building for my garage, should I have equal lengths on each side or should I build one side of the miter station longer than the other, which would offer more flexibility?

Hi Dwight, I am probably the wrong person to ask about miter saw stations. I have one in the background that accepts extension tables but I never use it in the shop. The one I had years ago had equal lengths on both sides if that helps. Steve

Steve, you have a digital scale for cross cut length on your saw. Could you please tell us what kind it is and where you got it?

Hi Stephenie. The digital scale is a Martin factory installed option ordered by the previous owner.

Steve, when doing crosscut, I think placing the crosscut on the rear position of the outrigger table gives better support for the stock. Is it easy to move the crosscut fence on your Martin slider?
@extremewoodworker

Hi James, it is easy to move the outrigger on the slider. What you don't see is the shaper that would interfere with the outrigger when the sliding table is pulled fully forward. The sliding table with nothing attached at the rear clears the shaper and power feeder. Nice thought though. Steve

I see. I like to move the crosscut fence to the rear position on the outrigger on my Felder KF700sp when doing crosscut, but moving it is not so easy, i have to loosen a knob and clamping lever, then lift the crosscut fence, move it to the front or rear position, and the crosscut fence is heavy!

Are you sure you can't slide it along the table? It has been a while but I seem to recall being able to do that when I had the CF741. Steve

Not, there is no way you can slide the crosscut fence on the outrigger table on any Felder slider.

After reviewing many Sliding Tables Saw videos, from the least expensive to the highest expensive; I have come to the conclusion (others have said it too) that the outrigger works best overall; if it is at the position Steve locates his. Yes, it does appear "wrong", since most of the time in woodworking we most always put the fence "behind" the stock. But a sliding table saw has SO many great maneuvers that we have not used prior to STS's. Just one example of many, is "parallel ripping". Thus, the more I study and see what slider owners are doing, both in a home shop and professional's operations; the more I am leaning towards the "wrong" way (LOL); when locating the outrigger and fence on the slider. After studying; it by expending many, many hours watching videos on sliders; I believe now that there really is no need to use the outrigger/fence, at the back side of the slider. Using a small miter gauge and small fence, at the other end, is always OK when needed. However, to each his own.

@@extremewoodworker gotcha. Thanks for the info. Your video series pushed me over the edge to get a slider. Just debating which. The 79" Hammer, or saving up for something else. a 9ft slide would be nice.
