Thread: Chasing BRA270 adapter for fitting bevel rip guide to Mark 3 workcentre

You could try this fellow over in NZ.

His postage is OK

Thanks for the tip-much appreciated!

I tried the guy in New Zealand but he cant help- can anyone else help with a BRA270 adapter for fitting a BRA200 bevel rip guide to a Mark 3 workcentre ?

Cheers

Damian,

The Triton bevel ripping jig seems to be limited to cutting close to the edge of the board - I haven't tried one, so maybe someone can correct me on this.

An alternative approach for the Mark III Work centre might be to make a laminate-covered MDF table top with a slot for bevel ripping. This would replace the steel table, and would need to be well located on the frame. A perimeter timber frame sitting outside the work centre, to keep the MDF rigid from underneath, might be needed. Some blocks or stops would also be needed to stop the saw from sliding. Then there is the fence to consider, and a slot for the protractor.

This seems like a lot of work, and that is why I haven't tried it yet!

Has anyone else tried a similar approach, or can offer advice on this idea?

Rob

Hi Guys
You could always try and find an original MK3 bevel rippinhg guide as they fit straight onto the MK3!!

I doubt that you will find the adaptor for sale anywhere.

When the bevel ripping guide came in Triton used to exchange the arms that fitted the WC2000 (and came as part of the bevel ripping guide) for the adaptor to fit the MK3 for free. That's what I did and so if I sold the adaptor separately then the rest of the jig is useless.

I will be placing my bevel ripping guide including the required adaptor to fit the MK3 on the market when I feel physically fit again ( hopefully soon after my radiation treatment finishes - but at the moment getting it out from under the house and packing it up etc is too much effeort for me) but only as a complete package and I will not separate.

Peter.

Damian,
I think I may have what you are looking for, If whats in the attached pic is what you want they are yours for the cost of postage.

They are also closing down, which isa great shame, as they have always been very helpful. Another victim of the recession.
