MFT/3 Track Holder

[JimboSlimbo]

I use my MFT/3's attached vertically to get a wider crosscut. This makes it difficult to raise the track to complete vertical for board swaps. I have been using hose hooks from ceiling and small boards, but I am looking to build something more permanent. Google searches and FOG/Reddit searches have come up blank.

Does anyone have a set up like this and have already thought out a solution to keep the track at 45 degrees for board swaps?

Tidy setup you have. Is there room to hang a hook from the ceiling?

Ah yes, the Dashboard guys. I love all of your stuff and I am currently using your Core MFT bundle and a few other accessories. I would've bought your table but I already had two MFT/3's.

Anyway, to answer your question. Yes, I have used a dust collection hose hook from guide tracks on the ceiling to hold the track. This only works with a low ceiling and won't let you be mobile. All of my benches and tables are on casters, a necessity in a small shop. So, that's why I am looking to see if anyone else came up with a solution before I break out my legal pad and channel my inner MacGyver.
