Being the C.O.B that I am I make my own T-Track. I use a 3/4"x 12 1/2" x 48" Malamine insert in my 12 1/2" Delta Planer. This allows me to plane very thin pieces and also helps to eliminate snipe. I then use Red Oak an use 36" x 1/2" thick by 3/4" wide base pieces and 36" x 1/8" thick x 3/4" wide top pieces to make the T-Track. I cut a 1/4" deep x 1/2" wide groove in the base piece and then glue the top piece on using brush on Contact Cement on both surfaces. I then cut the 1/4" Groove in the top piece. VOILA' Instant T-Track
I use Toillet bolts for the hold down bolts and have a friend turn my knobs on his ShopSmith Lathe. I told you I was a C.O.B!!!!:yes:
(You can also just use 1/4" Hardboard for the top piece. I use a lot of red oak for my Mission Furniture and have a lot of scraps so I use it)
