Sorry if this topic has already been discussed
I intend to use an Incra fence and CMS-GE module.Is it possible to connect the CMS module to MFT3. If so what parts would I need need?
Thanks in advance
To my knowledge the CMS-GE cannot be attached to the MFT/3 table with any parts from Festool. They sell the CMS-VL module that is meant to be attached always to an MFT/3 table and that one has suitable side rails and connectors available for the connection. Notice that the GE-units side rails are a single V-groove vs. the MFT/3 and CMS-VL share the MFT/3's side rails so the VL connectors won't work with the GE base.
You can see both briefly in this video from JMB showing both.
The GE is not the correct dimensions (depth) to attach to the MFT/3. Like Reiska pointed out, the VL would be a better option. However, the GE is the proper height to align with the top of the MFT/3, but there's no method for a physical connection.
I just made a solution using some 16x16mm triangle lists, and a 22mm piece of wood. I don't have the incra positioner, but it is on my wishlist. Sorry for the bad image quality.
