PM1000 and Incra TS -LS Fence

[Jim Reffner]

Considering the Incra 32 inch fence for a PM1000. If anybody has this particular saw/fence combination I'd like to know how you mounted the power switch to the fence. Thanks in advance for your reply.

Not the same saw, but had the same problem. A block of 1/2 plywood, with another glued & pinned to form an L. Drilled for a pair of hex bolts (3/8" maybe) x 1" or 1 1/4" with the proper weld nuts for the rail, then screwed the switch box to the back of the L, leave enough clearance at top to tighten the mounting bolts. (if you insert the hex bolts before screwing the box to the back--you don't have to unscrew the switch box to put them in later, not saying how I know this). I always use my thigh to switch off, and 5 or 6 years later I have had no issues. Could probably do similar with iron or stainless to make a bracket--that was my original intent, but the temporary plywood has caused no issues.
