As delivered, this entry level saw offers 30" to the right of the blade and 12" to the left.
Don`t recall ever having the fence to the left of the blade.
Do recall wishing for more capacity to the right on more than one occasion.
The stock R.H. wing is an MDF box 12" wide.
Made a new wing 24" wide.
Removed the rectangular tube that that supports the fence and drilled and tapped new holes to move this rail 8" to the right.
This has increased blade to fence distance R.H. to 37"+.(left of fence dropped to 4+, but I`m not sure this will EVER be an issue) Using the right side of fence to square and clamp a board to the extension table takes me to 44"
Only downside is that that I need to order an additional section of Wixey track to utilize the added travel.
I`ve been pleased with this unit, wish that S/C had not gone belly up.. ( orphan equipment etc)
