Guys with sliding panel saws..

my front clamp control is on my panel support arm.



here you can see the plywood (baltic birch) set into the aluminum with epoxy and filler. Its set level with the table before the epoxy sets up.

to tighten the fence, I turned an off center aluminum piece which has a brass pin which moves an aluminum bar up and down, to act as a cam clamp holding the unit firmly to the saw carriage.

My rear air line is run thrugh the table up to the front. There it is T'd with the front feed and runs down to the floor where I have a flexible hose running to the air hook up on the wall.

WHile in action, there is never a line in your way, or under your feet etc. Safe and neat.

that piece you made came with my felder slide saw . also I can release the fence so it is in front of the blade . reclamp it and this eliminates the possibility of the material pinching between the blade and fence
