Vince, thanks for the links. Do you have upgrade parts for change to hwin rails?
I know this is a very old thread but I'd love to see what you guys came up with. I'd like to do the same mods on mine. Thanks!
Made some first cuts just in time for Christmas. Shop foreman shown here checking my work for accuracy.
