I am about to start sizing the top cabinet for my BT base. IIRC the exact measurement between the rails is 22 7/16".
The question I have for others that have done this is can I make the base this exact width? There is plenty of clearance for the fence on the front but it looks very tight on the back rail. I am wondering if I should make the cabinet slightly undersized and then shim out the gap to the correct width when I attach the back rails leaving some clearance for the fence to slide clear of the back of the cabinet and top.
