MFS 400 and MFS 700 Multi-Routing Template System.

[Brice Burrell]

Brice,

I'd like to see how you store yours.  I made a small shelf to hang mine on the wall assembled but I'm not real happy with it.  I don't wanna stack'em like the picture above because I don't want to mar the labeling.  Have you worked out a good storage solution, maybe something protective and portable?

Chris...

  Chris, I store my 400 set in a small bag with cardboard in between the profiles, it works ok but a setup would be nice. Ned's idea of hanging the joined profiles on a nail in the shop would be the easiest thing.

My 400 and acc's are in an anvil briefcase. The 1m rails are in original cardboard reinforced w/ duct tape.

I've just created a single pdf of Brice's review and emailed it to him.  I can upload to the forum if Brice approves of it.

Matthew has added a PDF version of this, well, I guess its a user's guide, to the FOG gallery MFS user's guide PDF.

  I'd like to thank Noel Nyman for creating the PDF and Ned Young for his editing work. And thanks to all of you guys that offered to help out with the PDF.

FYI - the one I created also includes the staircase and jack miter pages from your website instead of just a link to those pages.  However, it doesn't include a table of contents like the one already uploaded to the forum, but it would only take a few minutes to add.

Great job by the way!  After reading this, I'm definitely planning to pick up one these sometime soon.

Brice,

In the first photo within you "CLosing Thoughts" post you show an end view of the many profiles you used.  How many MFS sets are represented in that photo?  My guess is 2 each of the MFS 400 and MFS 700.

Dave the photo is of one 400 and one 700 set stacked on top of each other.

 

[Eli]

Thanks Brice. You scored a spot on the binder shelf. Two thumbs up.

Brice,

Thanks.  I did not realize the profiles are that wide and have that many channels in them!

Question is, are they two left thumbs, if so that would explain Dan's two righties.  ;D
Thanks Eli.

Dave R.

Dave the profiles are 80 mm (about 3 5/32") wide, three "V" slots and one "clamp" slot in the top and the same in the bottom, with one "V" slot is edge. Total of eight "V" slots and two "clamp" slots per profile.

So, Brice, where's my next fix going to come from? You handled this subject like a 19th century installment writer. You now obviously have a devoted following that can't wait for the next serialization. Maybe you incorporate it into something like a woodshop murder mystery. That will allow you to retain your existing readership while simultaneously attracting readers with other interests.

I can't wait,

Charles

Charles, I was thinking maybe a tale of forbidden love, two sanders whose paths cross in an exotic location...........
;D

Brice, A really great and thorough job.
Thanks to you and those who assisted with pdf files, I now have both the entire discussion AND the pdf files ready for printing into my permanant shop files. 

I cannot begin to immagine how much time you actually spent putting this all together plus the time and patience to read all questions and make such great replies. it is truly a work of art and love.

;D

Do the sanders end up sharing the same pad?

;D

No, they grate on each other too much...

They found one another too abrasive...
