500/510/520 Upgrade
Can anyone tell me if a table off a 510 or 520 will fit the carriage from a 500? If the newer tables will fit is there a reason why I shouldn't upgrade my 500 table?

Sorry, neither the 510 or 520 main tables will not fit a 500 carriage. They require a 510/520 carriage. I find the 500 table with a infeed and outfeed table will handle most ripping jobs. You can build a 500 Cross-Cut Sliding table to handle most cross-cutting jobs.bucksaw wrote:Can anyone tell me if a table off a 510 or 520 will fit the carriage from a 500?

NO! The legs spacing is wider. Would work IF 510/20 carriage comes with it!
