Best material for outfeed table

[Salty]

Well, after some more thought and some bright ideas from someone wiser, I realized that I was probably over engineering this thing.
Here is what I ended up with. Simply a section of a hollow core bifold door, 18" wide hinged at about 34". The 16" section at the end folds back and stays in place with some velcro. One end rests on my roller stand and the other is attached with hinges, t-nuts from the accessory kit and studded knobs. It is easy to move along the rail to where it is needed and folds down when not needed.

Nice solution, Salty! As you say, it's easy to overengineer these things. I tend to keep looking for a perfect solution and never getting anything workable in place!

I think Loring has been peeking in my shop.

I made something very similar to what he describes:

I fixed the missing photos; I'm sorry it took so long.

Brain,

Could you take some detailed pictures of how you attached the out feet table to the back rail of the bt3?

Thanks a bundle!

Regards,

I just used the large T-nuts centered on a chunk of scrap that was wide enough to accomodate the 1/2" webbing of the plywood frame of the table.
