Do I still need my MFT?

[Rudymejia12]

Looking for some input. I just purchased a PCS Sawstop and built a nice big cross cut sled. I am trying to think do I still need my mft table? I used it for my cross cutting but now the Sawstop can do that. I also have a work bench with the 20mm holes. So I can use that for sanding and clamping. The only thing I can think of for the mft is for angled dados with the 1400 router.

Tom nailed it.

That said if you flip the rail length wise on the mft you might get more cross cut capacity then the table saw.

Portability maybe ?

Great idea

You'll want to use a longer rail for this, the one supplied with the MFT/3 is too short to reach over the long side when used with the rail hinge/support.

If you don't have a longer rail handy, you can use a bench dog instead of the support tab on the unclamped end for a longer crosscut with the stock rail.

(remove the fence side dog after aligning rail)

Misread the post, never mind  [scared]

I think they( TS saw & table saw) compliment each other real well.
The TS works well for big cuts, but the table saw works great for accurate small cuts.
