    The mitre slot was designed initially for a mitre guide to go in but now it's obsolete in relation to the fence. Yes, I'm now using it for a sliding finger joint jig. Like this one

    Yet to be built, this is someone else's that I want to replicate.

    and here's the fence, still in production.

    I have to build the complete table and recently started looking at materials, form ply looks pretty good at the moment for the whole lot. I have got some ply here made in the 1940's but nowhere near enough for the job and the quality of the stuff is unbelievable compared to what we get today.

    I see your at the burg, nip down to Joes at Unanderra, or Mr Ply in Unanderra and you'll get better quality Ply than Bunnings. I bought that piece from Mr Ply back in 1997 and been kicking around ever since. And 10yrs of summers sat in a tin roof shed. And she's still flat.

    inwill be converting my sons old MDF toy box into the router station and vacuum box underneath and will also brace the router too with some Tassie oak just to keep it from possibly warping in the future.
