    Default Habco homeshop

    Hi all,
    I just purchased a habco homeshop. I also have a copy of the 77 page instruction manual thanks to Mick C.

    The only trouble is that the fence for the planer seems to be missing the component that attaches onto the slide rail.

    Would anyone be able to post a pic of their machine? Particularly the fence?

    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks
    Tim

    Thanks old1955!
    I've browsed through all the previous threads pertaining to the homeshop. Still have to work through everything else. Looks like a lot of great information to enjoy.

    Interesting, thanks China. Is that the fence for the table saw?
    Does the planer fence have a similar attachment?
    In the morning I'll post some pics of the pieces I have.

    Sorry I thought it was the saw fence (did not read post correctly) the fitting for the planer fence is exactly the same, it is just bolted to a cast iron fence for the planer, I can take a pic if you want, I have two of them in my carport
    sold them to mate 2 years ago, (still in my carport with two other machines he should have picked up) they are very good machines served me well only reason for moving them is I have upgraded to bigger non combination machines

    Here are the fences from my machine. Unfortunately I'm missing the brackets that join them to the rail.

    Yeah I thought as much. I have a mate with a lathe and CNC mill. He should be able to help make something, but needs measurements or a diagram to work from.
