I used the old fence rails from my 36” PCS fence, but shifted them to the right (I did not replace the broken left wing). This gives me a comfortable 47” fence rip capacity. I may install a slider in the future-but not certain yet as I have a slider on the 52” PCS in the background. Now I’ll use them back to back for a while to figure out the best placement before I rework the outfeed table. For those that have back to back saws, how do you have them placed? Are the blades in line?
Back to the shop to play

Great job. And your shop looks like one of those Fine Woodworking shops - not a speck of dust anywhere
