Kapex stand scale off by 3-5mm

[Wood Hog]

I've been using the Kapex stand to make repeat cuts, but the tape on the left extension wing is off or under by 3-5 mm, is there any way to correct this? It's driving me nuts, having to check every thing with a tape, I thought the idea was you were able to rely on the tape to accurately measure off?

I have never used that scale.  I always measure the first one then lock down the stop.

You can calibrate it. Loosen the 2 captive screws underneath the mounting bracket and slide the wing further away from the blade until your where you want to be. My right wing is nearly tight to the kapex bed, the left wing is about 5mm away from it. I had to adjust the left wing when I got it but both are dead on now. It is especially useful when using the extensions inside the wings

Thanks jools, I'l try that in the morning, wish I'd asked on FOG earlier before struggling to making a kitchefull of face frames. I get in a hurry at times and just wanted to get it done. Oh well I still have 17draws and and 14 doors left to do so having it zeroed in will be of great benefit. Thanks

Would be nice if they let you adjust/calibrate the scale, like Incra does.
