This post has interesting information if you want to use the Incra TS-LS Table Saw Fence:

Hi Suso,

I've bought your plans yesterday. So this is my first question (probably of more to come ).

In your video's you mentioned that you thought about lineair bearings (like Louis has made). But you said that you eventually did not do it. Why? What is the benefit of the solution in the plans compared to the lineair bearings?




And have you considered miter bar sliders for the sliding carriage and / or the crosscut sled? I've never used these, but have such a bar attached to my miter gauge. With the stops of these bars, the sliding carriage won't be able to tilt our of the miter slot. So maybe in that way it could be possible to not have to make the drawer where it rests on?

Would like to hear what's your opion!

hi Djjvb,
for the carriage’s linear motion I thought about using linear bearings, but since I wanted a robust benchtop to work on, not just for cutting, in the end I decided to use aluminum miter channels. If you have another workbench to work on or are not going to be working hard on the carriage, you can use linear bearings.

Using miter bar sliders is a good idea, but wooden sliders like the ones I've used work fine too.

Hi, where can I find the reference to the adhesive teflon tape used to improve sliding?

Found it on Alizxpress. Thx!.

This is the problem with using nails in woodworking. My plunge saw blade has touched one of the iron nails I used to join the frame parts together. It's not going to damage the blade too badly; these are 0.8mm thick nails placed with a nail gun. It could be dangerous, however, if a piece of metal flies off and hits you in the face. Be careful when using nails in your projects.

Great post! It's interesting to see the improvements you've made to the mobile bench with a table saw and router table. Adding a thin 0.5mm metal plate with epoxy to lock the sliding carriage extension fence is a smart idea. It's a practical solution that prevents damage to the steel pipe while tightening the screw. Thanks for sharing your innovative approach to enhance the design!
