I have been working on enhancing my table saw and preparing it to perform double-duty as a router table. I started by making a right-hand extention table that will form the table top. My Grizzly contractor saw has the AlumaClassic fence, and it used a rear post to glide along the rear rail. I replaced the post with a small 3/8" piece of UHMW plastic to ride on the table top.
Over the Christmas break my father-in-law and I completed the router fence. It is made out of 3/4" MDF with 3/4" melamine split fence fronts. I have some T-Track on the top for the bit guard and feather boards. Another T-Track is dado'd into the back of the split fence and held onto the sub fence with four flange bolts and knobs. I'll clamp the whole thing to the table saw fence when it's time to use it.
You may notice the glaring absence of a router in the table top. I have a Hitachi M12 waiting in the wings and am waiting for another sale from Woodpeckers on their plunge lift.
Thanks for looking!
