That's what I was wondering. The rotating washer sounds like a great idea, any pics of that solution?

Ed, that's genius, although it did lead to a Homer Simpson 'doh!' when I saw the pics. :) It'll be very handy to be able to use the same miter gauge on both saw tables. I'll work on this solution tonight.

Nice work!

thanks again,
wes

I can't take credit for the idea, I saw it somewhere. It was pre this forum so I have no idea who though it up but when I saw it I copied it. I have several non t-slot shopsmith tables so it turns out to still be useful for me.

It would have been a good idea for shopsmith to run with but then who wants to pay $10 for one anyway.
