    BT3100 fence scale

    Anyone know where I can find a good scale tape to go on the extension rails for my 3100? I bought a pair of half-length extensions a few years back and am finally getting around to building the mobile base and mounting them and I noticed today that the scale doesn't continue where the primary rail leaves off. Ideally I'd like to find an adhesive tape that fits the rail, don't care much whether the look matches the factory scale, just need something I can cut and install to continue the measurement.

      If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

          Lee-Valley also carries a couple of adhesive-backed tapes. (http://www.leevalley.com/US/wood/pag...=1,43513,43517)

          Although the tapes are cheap ($3.95 for a ten foot strip; comes in 'left' or 'right', if you can up your order to $40, there's free shipping through June 8th.

          (I have no affiliation with Lee-Valley, other than being a satisfied customer)
