    Sliding Table

    While I have been checking this forum pretty well every day, I haven't posted anything on a regular basis for a long time. Been too busy building fences and gates, a fair bit of wiring, built a substantially larger basement shop, redid the laundry/storage area in the basement, poured new walkways with my neighbour at his place and ours and built a small retaining wall. I know; 'No pictures , didn't happen' etc.
    I also recently went to the darkside and bought the Sawstop cabinet saw.
    And that leads to the reason for this thread.
    Anybody out there familiar and/or has experience with the JessEm Masterslide
    http://www.jessem.com/MAST-R-SLIDE.html or the Grizzly sliding table
    http://www.grizzly.com/products/T10223
    I would be interested to hear your opinion on either unit.

      I've had no experience with the mentioned products, but I've been using a Jessem router lift for a while. I was, and still am, impressed with the craftsmanship. Very well built and reliable.

      The other Jessem products I've seen looked to be of the same quality. I eyeballed and played with the Jessem Mite-R-Slide when they had one on display at my local woodcraft on more than one occasion.

          I have the Jessem
          Mast-R-Slider. I really like it. It was easy to set up and holds it's setting. Very convenient and accurate but it is only good for ~37" crosscut max. I like it because it takes up very little space and does not need support legs. I've used roller stands once or twice to help support the overhang.

                      You caught that, did you.
                      I'll try the pictures, have to learn how to do that again.
