Anyone heard of a bolt on 3rd party outfeed table for a Ridgid TS3650 contractors saw. I am tired of setting up the little roller stand I have. ;)

Good Suggestion tod but I need to be able to put it away at night. Not enough space for a permenent table.

I'm with tod on this. I always use a full sheet of melemine. I take extra time to make sure it is built the same height as the saw and on the same plane and level with the saw table. It's not quite a European slider, but it works very well.
Plus if you use it for construction, glue does not stick to it. You should also rout two channels for miter gauge slots.

For a couple of pics. I also belong to the Ridgid forum - I have the same saw as you, so I went over there and here are 3 pics. It is a little hard to see exactly how he bolted it on, but as you can see he extended it back before the fold to account for the motor.

Whoops I am sure that is against the rules or something. This pic is way bigger than I have seen on here

I use one that Rockler puts out, on my Unisaw...and I think it works great. Take a look at it in their catalog..or online. For the money I am very happy with it, I have to store my saw up against the wall, so the outfeed just pops off.

Chuck,

If you post the pic as an attachment, it will be small until you click on it. "Manage Attachments" is located below the post/reply window.

Very nice table and interesting "jig". Please post some more pics of your saw and what you've done to enhance it!

Thanks

Nice pic Chuck! Looks like a little Photoshop bevel and emboss with a drop shadow (135 deg?) What camera did you use? The shallow DOF and nicely blurred background point to a higher end lens.

Ben, give a look at the Incra Outfeed Table (http://www.woodpeck.com/outfeedtable.html)that Woodpeckers is selling. It is specifically for an Incra fence system, but will bet that with only minor changes it would work on any saw.

Thanks for the advice on the attachments. This was just an example of what someone had done with their saw. I want to do this with mine. I dont know if you are familiar with this particular saw or not, but it has a big gap on the right hand of the saw. It is bridged by a rod that keeps the rails for the fence the right distance apart.

Well, it is sure the perfect spot for a built in router table on this saw (and I am sure many others). So I have put in a melamine router table with supports back to the main body. It has come in handy and I can use the main fence on the table with just a couple of additions. Hey it eliminated the router table out of an already cluttered shop.

The outfeed table is the next logical step for this saw though. It will come soon. Right after the liquor cabinet I am building.

7/14/06 My bad, so sorry. I'll be sure to reciprocate and not mention SMC on any other sites (dare I name them and risk the wrath of the Gods? :eek: ) as I have no doubt that you wouldn't any of the Riffraff showing up here. Forget I tried to help please.



Best 73 to those that know what that means. To those who don't, no worries mate, it's not an insult.

I have used Bob D's plan (many thanks Bob) to build my outfeed table. It is everything I wanted and plenty stable. I have not added legs to the extension yet and am using my adjustable roller stands until I find what I want. The cost on the table was very minimal meaning around $100.00

Outfeed table: See Woodsmith Vol 28 No164, pg 145. I built an outfeed for my cabinet saw and an infeed for the router table. Melanine, 2x4's and folding shelf brackets from Rockler. Incorporate Richard Wolf's idea for miter tracks. Real miter tracks are an overkill. A routed out track is all that is necessary in my opinion.

Ken, can you give us a hint as to what to search for? At least in FireFox and IE, the link above is not disabled, it's munged. As I understand the TOS, the URL is allowed, but but hyperlink is not. In this case, the URL has been disguesed, but the hyperlink is still live (albeit to a non-functional URL).

Vaughn, the forum is the Ridgidforum -- Bob D. started the thread on that site and has his own site at http://home.comcast.net/~sparc/woodworking.htm with info on the outfeed table and more.

Thanks, Stephen...and welcome to the Creek. I discovered the Ridgid forum before I bought my TS3650, but shortly afterwards I found SMC, and have kind of been stuck here ever since. It's a great bunch of folks.
