I used some of my wife's high falutin card stock. I wish it was legal size though. Oh well. It took 3 layers. Miter Gauge clears the notch and the extrusion is below the table top.
Thank you so much.

Yep, I've got a list for 'em.
I don't mind doing a fix/mod such as this cuz it can be easily reversed.

Re: Bandsaw Fence & Miter Gauge
I think I understand but if I do your measurements are completely different than mine.

Re: Bandsaw Fence & Miter Gauge
I think the bandsaw table miter gauge slot(sans) extrusion is de culprit.
Too deep.
Too deep.

Miter Slot in the table too deep or aluminum extrusion not tall enough???JPG wrote:I think the bandsaw table miter gauge slot(sans) extrusion is de culprit.

Re: Bandsaw Fence & Miter Gauge
Since that same extrusion is used many other places, I think the table is more likely(but as you have said not the only possibility).dusty wrote:Miter Slot in the table too deep or aluminum extrusion not tall enough???JPG wrote:I think the bandsaw table miter gauge slot(sans) extrusion is de culprit.
Too deep.
The depth of the table slot should only slightly deeper than the extrusion is thick. (extrusion thickness +? - 0)

Re: Bandsaw Fence & Miter Gauge
I would assume that the tables come from only one source while the aluminum extrusions could very easily be from more than one. One casting - one table configuration.
If anything is being manufactured incorrectly, my money is on the aluminum extrusion.
