I’m recently retired and relatively new to woodworking. I set up my shop in the year before my retirement and my splurge purchase was a Felder K 700 S sliding table saw. It is an amazing piece of equipment and I love the precision with which I can cut sheet goods using the x-roll slider.

When milling rough lumber, my straight line rip capacity using the x-roll slider is about 8.5 feet. I’m looking for ways to expand that capacity to handle 10’ to 12’ boards while using the slide and not just hand feeding them. The slide really helps me handle the weight safely on those long 8/4 boards. I’m betting that someone has already solved this limitation issue and I would greatly appreciate your expertise.

Thanks!
