| For those who have an American
Design and Engineering Saw Helper saw stand, here's a few
ways to set the stand up for a Bosch 4412 without sacrificing
the built-in sliding tables (which are useful when you have to
cut only one or two short pieces of material!). |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
| The trick is to mount the AD & E extension wings to the
stand and NOT to the saw. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
| All it takes is a little welding. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
| But sure to allow enough room for the built-in extention tables
to slide out. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
| When I transport my stand, I just fold it up like I always
have. Sure, the extension supports hang out a little on each side,
but hey, if you've got a better idea, let's hear it! |

 |
| Danny Staples came up with another good idea for customizing
an AD & E stand. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
| He also decided against mounting the extension wings right
to the saw. Instead, he flanked the saw with two hollow boxes,
then mounted the AD & E couplers to the boxes. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
| The lids on each box hinge open, providing a good spot to
store flip stops, crown stops, pencils, maybe even a cordless
pencil sharpener? |

 |
| Harvey Raufman also mounted bracket-boxes to his Ryoby saw
stand (too bad they don't make those anymore!), then used AD &
E couplers to attach home-made extension wings. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
| Harvey made adjustable legs, too. Boy they look mighty familiar...But don't miss noicing that Kreg
Bench Clamp! |
