Don't have any plans or pics, but I did something for my 2000 for a few big cuts that might suit.

I used a large scrap of chipboard, but would prefer MDF for more permanent.

I would use a...

Definitely the old series mk3. The first pic is the fist of the 2000, before the newer version.

Mk3 never came with alignment discs inserts etc. An alignment disc with be of no use as the hole...

Not really knowing what the mounts are like, if they are plastic i could see an issue with the vibration of the scroll saw slowly weakening them. Maybe rather than a flip have 2 interchangeable tops...

The actual width that can be cut in one pass is much less than 600mm. the table will accept a piece 600 wide, but the width of cut is dependent on the saw and where the rear of the blade is in...

Online Hardware Store - HardwareFast - Australia

no idea if they are any good etc. It just popped up in a google search

maybe a sheet of 3mm mdf (or the melamine coated one) bigger than the table top. put a batten on the bottom on all four sides, so it is a snug fit to create a new top.
If you have a through table...

Have a look at this thread. https://www.woodworkforums.com/f15/original-triton-mk3-video-1984-uploaded-150893/ In the video at about the 52 minute mark he deals with saw slump and means to rectify it

don;t forget that these are for the 2000 table which has angled legs

I see the we'll beat it by 10% as more about a guarantee of a cheaper price, and not a predatory thing. If you go into any Bunnings you will see tickets with reduced price so that they are the same...

Back to the original question. I would consider flipping the front axle around, so that the axle is behind the pivot. It will act more like a caster and want to go straight. At the moment it might...

I have to agree with Charleville, what is the problem with Bunnings?
They are out to make money, just like your local hardware store.
They employ locals, just like the local hardware store.

My kids kinder has these sort of things made out of pine and ply. 4 sides are in pine and ply on the last two. Most have a hand slot at each end to pick up (about 1" x 3") all are varnished

Has anyone tried one of these from Carbatec. Dust Deputy DIY Kit : CARBA-TEC
$69 seems reasonable, and would save a bit of messing around with fittings funnels etc, except it would need a reducer...

It would be quite easy to do, but I would mount the router to the MDF, without the chassis.
You could pack out the 2000 fence with 2 pieces of wood, one in front and one behind the cutter. Look at...

My god has it been around for 130 years!!! (1884 in subject title on original post.)

interesting to see the evolution of the Mk3 from 1984 (and the clothes)

Shorter rip fence, hideous blade...

You could just make up some fittings. for each one, A bolt about 30-40 mm long, one nut and one wing nut. A small piece of angle iron and a U shaped piece of flat.

Looks great. You could even have a selection of interchangeable mazes

I would expect more than 9 years from a saw. My first circular saw came with a 2nd hand Mk3 table about 20 years ago. The saw was old then guessing up to 10+ years and it only finally died last...

I don't have a through table winder, i find that as I am crouched down getting at eye level to the cutter that it is easy to reach under and adjust with a few twists, I think reaching up and over may...

For the maze walls you instead of ply or exotic timber, if you have access to a tablesaw you could always rip some strips of a scrap piece of decking board like merbau, jarrah etc.

Don't bother

I have one and it was next to useless, the hold down arm didn't tighten up enough properly cause the arm to rotate upwards and in attempts to tighten it a part of the clamp broke. I...

Maybe a bolt and nut the right length in the chassis wold work. It would need to project up just enough to go in the hole in the top. you would need to line up the chassis and then lower the top. ...

Reading your description it sounds a bit similar to wiring in office partitions.

Thanks for that, had a look at her designs and there's a lot of beautiful stuff. My father has just gotten into scroll sawing and asked if I saw "some patterns" but couldn't decide what. I have...

They look great, does David use plans for them, or make it up as he goes

Chambezio, that was pretty close,

It was targeted at the trade market for onsite use, with the old ABC show "The inventors" featuring it.. Initial models were fairly basic and crude, I have seen...

Made another one for his friend. This time i used a different set of instructions - http://www.instructables.com/id/A-Traditional-Jacob-s-Ladder/

It was much easier and no mess (except the...

Looks good

That's the exact opposite reaction to what I had.
He saw one in a shop and we thought it would be fun to make, when I googled it I came up with a few thousand volts..... Never knew about that one

This is a quick little toy I made with my 6 year old.

Either that or you throw it out after keeping it for years thinking it will come in handy one day, only to realise you need 2 weeks later

I did like this

This is what I did when I had my Mk3 and lost one pin

use a bolt (or steel rod) where the shaft (unthreaded section) is the same diameter as the locking pin, and long enough to go through the...

Wouldn't hurt to take your bike to the shop and do a test fit to make sure. My mountain bike has large top tube and teh water bottle carriers added leave only a small gap to fit over the bike...

The original dust bag from triton was actually a full kit including the bucket and hoses. The funnel was actually a nylon material and came down to a narrow funnel with a standard hose fitting, add...

Firstly the only real way to gas (secondary fermentation) is to add more sugar during the bottle phase, either teaspoon or drops. It is this extra bit of sugar the small amount of yeast residue...

The cost of a chassis, and height winder might make it way too expensive to "update"

When available in the old days of triton they were about $50-60 each
A complete 2nd Mk3 goes for about $150+...

yes, they were sold as a "upgrade"

Nothing springs to mind ( i don;t have the Triton saw though)

Most machines are just motorised hand tools, to speed up the work
Hand saw = jigsaw / fretsaw / scroll saw. all cut on the push and then return to the start.
Ciircular blades just cut out the...

That's pretty much it. Would look for a table that has a tilt function on the blade, which Triton doesn't. So you can rip bevels if needed.

Would be a bugger to push the bus over the table though

Would be interested to see what the charge life of the batteries are compared to the original. I've got a few drills in need of repack, when I get the time one day

If you have the old series, with only a small round hole in the orange table about 50-60mm then the link you posted is correct.

If you have the current series, where there is a large...

It's usually not a problem to name someone, just so long as it is not a blatant plug.

He's in Sydney, aren't you you in Melb?

was that 2 batteries for $45 or just one? and where was it done?

Try these guys.

They sell some left over GMC stuff and may be able to fix or have a charger

I don't see too much wrong with it, once you add the mdf the other side as you have already said.
I can't see it being anymore dangerous than using the protractor.

A piece of polycarb from front...

I would have to agree with Charleville. I;ve had a Mk3 and a 200 and both are okay, with the already mentioned limitations. I also have a SCMS, so only use the triton as a table saw.
the 2000 does...
