I picked up some pretty good kitchen cabinets in a house that was being torn down for just $50.00. I'm lining one wall of my shop with these cabinets which is also where my RAS is. I have purchased some material for counter tops which are in two long pieces. I want to install a fence between these two pieces that will run for most of the counter. I've been looking at Incra's site. http://www.incra.biz/Products/TrackShopStop.html
Does anyone know if this is all I need? Or do I need an additional fence to backup this track?
Thanks in advance.

Jim,
The Incra is very precise measuring fence. I use their fence for my table saw, but I think it might be overkill for you RAS. I don’t know what it will cost you, but you might want to look at the Dual Purpose Track with a flip-stop. It has worked well for me with the setup that I have. Plus with the way you want to mount the fence between the boards, it would be an easy install.
This is a pic of the track and flip stop.
