If you hinge the screens to each other so they can open/close like an accordion this will keep the stiles from bowing.
But if hinging is out of the question I think a mid-rail or wider stiles will...
You can buy a new arbor from Peter Harrison for the Hammond TrimOsaw that allows the saw to take a 5/8" arbor sawblade.

Ipe is an extremely destructive choice of wood to use. A quick google search will show you most of the ipe for sale here in the USA is from illegal logging.
We have plenty of north American woods...
I'm restoring a 1938 Craftsman 8" cast iron body table saw. It came with removable wings. Here's a photo of the machine (not mine). They come up for sale in better condition than this rusty one....
Thanks Jamie, however I'd prefer to use either hard oil or Rubio on this project.
Here are two red oak panel glue-ups that I fumed. They are finished with regular (pure) Rubio.

They don't match white oak, but the fuming gets rid of the pink hues, and moves it a...
Andrew, I regularly fume red oak with ammonia and it can make it look more like white oak than before. I'll try to dig out some photos.
Thanks Bill, but the site give no information about how it takes the finishes I mentioned.
I think the WDB is a great website, one I refer to often.
I'll be making something with Santos Mahogany - am concerned about how it takes finish.
Can I use hard oil (poly, linseed, thinner) or will the oils stop the finish curing?
How about Rubio...
I will loan my machinist friend tools, and I borrow some from him. He has an extensive collection of gear pullers I've used over the years when restoring my machines.
Last week our car battery...
Good for you. Photos of the finished board please.
I bought a 15" widebelt sander used. It was taking way more material on one side.
The maker (I won't say who) still sells new machines here in Los Angeles - they said to bring it in, would be...
Thanks everyone, I'll buy some right now.
Does anyone have a favorite place / trusted brand of Danish chair weaving cord?
thanks, Mark

I came across these chairs online, which look to me like they might be the starting point for the people who make the chair you are making a copy off.
Posting here to add to this great thread.

Last week a friend sent me an NYT article on the "Most Defining Pieces of Furniture from the Last 100 Years".
Donald Judd's Single Daybed 28, 1978 is included and is one of the few pieces that has...
That's impressive capacity. How do you find out about all these top-of-the-line machines?
Rhetorical question!
Can't help you on the electrical questions, but I'd like to know why you sourced a RAS in Europe?
You like good machines, is this one better / different to a good ol' Merican RAS?
Andrew that's got to be incredibly frustrating for you, as I know you're in business cutting wood.
Let us know the upshot.
Paul's not a young 'un. Wishing him a full recovery. And to Steven's wife too.
No. I would not do this. As well as the reasons above you need to walk around that end of the saw to pick up wood that you have just cut and this vise will be in the way.
You'll be leaning in way...
The fence on your saw is not one I enjoyed using years back. As far as I remember it tightens against the round rail on both ends of the table, and was impossible to keep square.
I have a Vega disc/belt sander that came with a built in dust collector.
Here's a photo of it the day I got it.
