Showing you why the MFT/3 VL CMS  is crap for site!

How the Basic CMS RULES for site work and also workshop if you have limited space in your workshop

As you know I own both Basic CMS and VL  but I have not used my VL yet just dont have the SPACE!   Picture below show you my common problem I would have with the VL

All 3 images you can see if I was to use my VL I would just not have to room to work on my MFT table and have enough room for Feed in & out when using the router on the CMS.  Which ever way I would turn the table I just dont have the room.  Also trying to move a setup of that size is near impossible unless you dont mind bending legs and maybe break something.  So you would have to remove the Ug extensions to move the table round again just not practical.

This positions would be fine IF you have enough room for the Out feed  when using long pieces of wood.

Here you can see the benefits to the Basic CMS

You can have it set up in a hall way.  You can keep your MFT free and place is some where else if needed or you can leave it in your van if you dont need it.

JMB, thanks!!

Convinced me with your impartial, balanced and articulate assesment of the merits of each system! [tongue]

Guess thats just cost me another £415!! [eek] [eek]
 
JMB, I'm sold.  When can you send me one?  Make it two.  I'm sure I could sell one to a lucky N.A. FOG member.
 
jmb didn't write that stuff.  I understood every word.  Who is this impostor!?      [wink]    Excellent illustrations actually.  [thumbs up]
