Somewhere along the past I documented the Rod Kirby Shop Built (DIY) Miter Fence Holder
CCF-KIRBY MITER FENCE HOLDER DETAIL.pdf
The above PDF can be downloaded and has the measurements for the holder parts - its rather simple,
Really takes a top plate, a block and a compound T-slot strip, plus you need a 5/16-18 x 3" bolt and a 5/16-18 female threaded knob the latter two can be bought most hardware stores.
I'm pretty... -

After a bit more thinking, some universal T-bolts for the rip miter fence make more sense than fixture blocks.
The two big slots in the rip fence and the miter fence and the front and rear rails are sized to take 1.00 inches wide x 1/8th and 1-1/8" wide x 1/8th.
So I took some 1/8th flat Aluminum 1.00 inches wide and cut 1-1/8" long to make a 1" x 1-1/8" rectangular plates; I used a short rip fence Block to space the length but not cause a kickback with the...07-09-2023, 01:37 PM -

DIY BT3000 FIXTURE BLOCK for Rip/Miter Fence extrusion
Simple shop construction - no machining.
This is intended to fit the top T-track on the Rip and miter fence (uses the same extrusion) on the Ryobi BT3x00 / Craftsman 22811 family of saws
You must make the Block and Base parts; you can make them 1.5" or 3 inches long or modify to any other length.
Make the base from 1/8” aluminum bar, you can get 1.5”, 2”, and 3” at Lowes... -

Ripping thin strips can be accomplished in a number of ways, but this jig is the best I've found so far.
- There is no need to move the fence so every strip comes out exactly the same.
- It is incredibly easy to build
- It keeps your hands well away from the blade the whole time
- It keeps control of the strip you are ripping all the way through the cut and past the blade
- It doesn't interfere with the blade guard.
- You can cut strips from any length of stock

BT3000 tall rip fence
09-12-2021, 07:58 PM
I have had a tall BT3000 fence for a number of years, I should have used it a few days ago but I didn't because it was too much trouble, And I paid the price as the tall item was a little unstable and I had a hard time controlling it as the two pieces separated and wallowed out a bigger kerf than I wanted at one place.
Anyway the BT3000 tall fence is generally held on by the T-slots in the side of the rip fence. This is...10-20-2021, 02:27 AM
