If you haven’t already read it, you might find some ideas in this topic.
As an alternative to folding, I saw (somewhere on this forum) a table that dropped down from the ceiling.
- Must cut a minimum of 32x12 and be able to feed longer boards.
To help in feeding longer boards, consider having the spoil board sit on top of a base board with the spoil board no bigger than the working area. Doing it this way ensures there is not a “pit” in the spoil board from surfacing. The pit on my Burly made working with oversized stock difficult, so the design I describe is how I changed things when I built my Primo.
- Must incorporate a sacrificial fence/square so I can load precut goods into the machine and be able to register their edges.
I don’t do much aligned work, but my solution was wooden pegs to push the stock against. Cheap to replace, and easy to remove after the work is clamped. Fences using the peg holes (and dressed with the router) can be created.
