Hi everyone,
So I just recently acquired an old Craftsman 100 tablesaw, handed down from my grandfather. I'm going to put a Power Twist belt on it, and maybe replace the pulleys to try and get it running as smooth as I can. The table doesn't have any extension wings on it, so it is pretty small, about 20" wide by 27" deep. I want to build a cabinet for it with an outfeed support as well as side supports. My question is, does anyone have any suggestions on what I might be able to replace the fence track with to be able to extend out to the side extension tables I'm going to build? And also, any suggestions for aftermarket safety switches. I see that Rockler sells one for about $25 that looks pretty easy to turn off in a hurry. Any other suggestions? I appreciate the input.
Greg
