Is the Kapex on a MFT Mini table the same height as a MFT3 table?

[jrnguyen23]

I have a Kapex on the way but I am trying to decide between getting the UG with extensions or MFT Mini and use my MFT3 table as an extension on one side?  I work from my garage so space is limited and this is just for hobby not a business.

Yes, if by mini you are referring to the MFT Kapex.

Both the MFT/3 and the MFT Kapex have a height of 90 cm.

Add the height of the Kapex itself and you have a difference. You can use the MFT/3 as an extension if you make a plank to fit on top of the MFT/3 that's on level with the Kapex.

Wrong info, please disregard.

Ok, thanks.  Its listed as a MFT3/MINI table in the 2015 catalog. But I would just measure the Kapex and add it to the height listed on the MFT Kapex table (mini) but I don't have the Kapex yet.  Thanks for the info it was helpful.

The MFT Kapex/Mini height is not 90 cm. It is 79 cm. add the Kapex and the deck of the Kapex is at the same height as the MFT 3. It was designed to line up with the "system". I can attach the UG wings to the Kapex on the MFT Kapex, they work out the same as if the Kapex was on the UG stand. All the combinations line up to the deck height of the MFT 3.

Hi
......a sys1 will also be the same height as the base of the Kapex
A C.S.50 will be 900mm in height
A C.S.70 will be 900mm in height
A Kapex on the U.G stand will also be 900mm in height.
MFT 3 will also be 900mm in height...
System and standard approach to work  [wink]

Oh no, I've been known to be wrong before, once or twice. And then again, according to some people, I'm wrong all the time. [wink]
