Subject: Mitre Saw Add-On Fence Length
|
I am currently designing add-on fence 'wings' with measuring device
(left and right) for my CMS. I have room up to 56" per side. Should I
just make them 48" long as I am using T-slot extrusion for the stop
mechanism which is maximum 48"? Obviously I can add a second piece to
make up the remaining length if I make them longer.
Your input would be appreciated.

I like your viewpoint of the 8' board: it would be a problem to split
it in half if it were a 48" fence. Mind you, there is at least another
foot between the blade and the start of the add on fence, therefore
giving me 60".
The only potential problem is possibly not having a hard stop for cuts
longer than 60". Having a physical fence there really doesn't matter
otherwise.
Thank you for your input. Is there anything else I should consider?

Perhaps I should have mentioned that it is for a stationary mitre
bench.

Is your saw moveable? If so, I'd go with 48", but allow myself the
option to attach another full 48" section for when I need to make
longer cuts.
