Bill,
Thats the best i can do, told you i'm an idiot. Try it on your home page and see if you can bring it up. The site has all the replacement parts for a biese.

woodnthings · 10-27-2009, 04:02 PM

Let's try this one:http://www.mikestools.com/Power-Tool...facturing.aspx
Actually for replacement parts it's this one:
http://www.mikestools.com/biesemeyer...arts_1418.aspx
Google did not like the other one(s).

Thanks for heading me in the right direction, even tho it was down the wrong road!

Idoits are a dime a dozen, insane

is when you keep doing the same thing over again and expecting things to change.....Keep on keepin' on there. What about that fence?

Bill,
I am waiting for the welding machine to arrive, supposed to be here tomorrow. The only thing i have left to do until then is drill and tap the holes so i can adjust the fence to square, all the other parts are cut and ready to weld. The only major thing i need to make is the cam lever, that is going to be alot of grinding. Making it out of 3/4 x 2"x 10" piece of flat bar. Keep you posted on progress. Have a good day. BTW the pics you posted have been a huge help, when i get stumped i log on to this site and study them.TY

Fence is welded together, checked to make sure it clamped to the front rail, it did, and when it did the back end come up off the table about 2". Grinded the weld off lowered the cam lever supports about 1/2" and TADAAAAAA, rock solid and fence stays on the table at the back rail. Now i can't show it to you until it is a little further along. Ok gotta go mow the yard before the LOML gets home, thats right "HEN PECKED"

Her is a couple of pictures of the fence, still have alot of work to do. The ugly handle has not had anything done to it except the face that locks it to the front rail, total cost todate $72.00 and change.

garryswf · 10-31-2009, 04:05 PM

Ok, here it is all but the sacrificial fence. My grandsons bike only has one handgrip now. It didn't look that dirty when i took the pictures.

Looking good. How wide a panel will you be able to rip?

Gerry

garryswf · 11-01-2009, 11:11 AM

Gerry,
Thanks, to the left of the blade i can rip 12-1/8"-- to the right of the blade i can rip 24-1/8".

garryswf · 11-03-2009, 09:40 AM

Ok fellows, Her are two pictures, one after it was purchased and the other after the fence and rails were completed. Thanks to everyone for their helpful info and to you WnT for the pics. The first pic was taken right after it was purchased, the second was taken after fence and rails were completed. OK, time to make sawdust

woodnthings · 11-03-2009, 12:28 PM

Glad I could helpout. As with anything DIY there's always "things" we'd do different, but I think it turned out fine and if it squares itself when locked that's all the matters. PITA if not! I did like the light grey color better,

JMO! bill
BTW is the kid ridin' the bike one handed?

boardmaker · 11-03-2009, 02:31 PM

garry,
I was wondering on the rails, are those stick on slides or did you remove the paint and that is unfinished steel? If it is some form of slide, what is it and where did you get it?
I'm jealous and I believe I'll be building one myself. I've already been looking in our scrap piles for tubing.

I hope this link works. It's a little late in the game but definitely worth a look. It's a pdf about building a rail and fence nearly identical to the one you built. Except it uses 2x3 for the rails.
It even has cad files.

If you spill your beer around your table saw the floor would be slick and dangerous. Cat litter could elevate this problem.
