Hello there,
Been using a Ridgid MSUV for my Makita LS1013 SCMS for years. Overall, been pretty happy with it. Only real gripes are that there is no flat wing or table between the saw deck and the roller stands on either end, and no place to locate any material stops for repeated cuts.
I'm at the point where I was about start on a portable (roll-around) miter saw station with folding wings (basically the one from FWW #209) and then I got to thinking (always dangerous) about whether just adding some extension wings to the existing stand would be a better option. They'd have to come off somewhat easily to allow the saw to remain portable for those once-in-a-blue-moon projects when the saw *does* need to go outside the shop... I'm just wondering if anyone here has any experience and/or pics of home-built miter-saw wing/fence extensions for a portable miter saw stand? I've found some threads where people *talked* about it, but never any with pics from people who'd actually *done* it.
TIA,
Monte
