Pietenpol-List: Routing the tail pieces - table saw modified to router

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: "Jack Phillips"
Hello good Piet-ple,Spend the last couple sessions rounding over the tail pieces. To do this I didsomething I have been wanting to do for quite some time - modify my table sawwing/extension to mount my router. It took a good deal of time and effort withmy angle grinder to remove the "ribs" on the underside but it was well worthit...Enjoy a couple images of the modified table saw and the parts after rounding over.(I bought my wings and tail "mostly completed" from another gentleman so Iam mostly just having to refine them.)Enjoying the adventure...--------Jake Schultz - curator,Newport Way Air Museum (OK, it's just my home)Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/tabl ... __________

Pietenpol-List: Classifieds for the Experimental Aviation Community

Hello, Pietenpol builders and flyers!Over the past few years I've noticed that many homebuilders tend to stick to theirown online groups. Also, when people are looking to buy or sell parts (orplanes), that experience is also quite fragmented. There will be different postingson individual email lists, dedicated builder forums, and the big generalaviation classifieds sites... but often these listings would be of interest toeveryone regardless of which type of plane they are building or flying.To try to help people reach across those divisions, I am launching a new website:www.SkySwapper.comIt's an online classifieds site purely dedicated to the experimental aviation community.Of course, since it's brand new, it's pretty empty... but I'm hoping you all canhelp me with that. Posting ads with one photo will always be free, but signup using the promo code: matronicsand you'll get the ability to post ads with 4 up to pictures for free as thanksfor being one of the early adopters, along with some other perks.(Or simply register with this link:)http://www.skyswapper.com/register.php? ... onicsSince I'm a -10 builder that frequents the Matronics forums, I decided that thiswas the best community to begin the initial launch with. The site is still ina beta release, so comments, suggestions, and complaints are all very importantto me. If you see anything that is broken, or have ideas about how to makethe site function better, please let me know thru the Contact Us page on thesite.Thanks for your time and happy building and flying!Ed KranzRV10 Builderwww.SkySwapper.comwww.EdandColleen.com (my build site)Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Classifieds for the Experimental Aviation Community

Thanks.... A small shop was one of the key reasons I wanted to combine both tablesaw and router table functions on the same tool. There are companies that make replacement castings/tops (with router inserts) fortable saws, but this was the simplest way I could think of to do it....--------Jake Schultz - curator,Newport Way Air Museum (OK, it's just my home)Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Wed, 11 Sep 2013 12:46:37 -0700 (PDT)
