MFT3 and the FastCap Best Fence

[BigCountry73]

Does anybody know if the FastCap Best Fence System for the Kapex will fit the MFT 3?

I saw this system on their channel and the mounts attach in the v-groove on the Kapex. I am wondering if it will fit the MFT3 similar to the UG extensions?

Thanks,

Keith

    The FastCap Kapex attachment should fit the MFT/3 V groove since the groove is the same as the Kapex. From looking at pictures there should be enough room for the bottom holding piece to fit. But I think the knob may be up against the MFT extrusion too close to turn it.

I just received my best fence on friday...it will fit with a couple modifications...
The knob is too big and will have to be ground down...also there's  a little lip on the bracket that must also be taken down a little to fit nicely...

Awesome visual! Thanks very much as that's been on my mind as well.
I've been debating getting the Fastcap with Kapex adapters or just getting the bench setup - those adjustment blocks are pretty slick

I, too, am considering getting the bench setup. I figured if the blocks for the Kapex will work on the MFT, which appears it will with some mods, then I can get a fence system that is dual purpose.

I emailed Paul at Fastcap to ask if the Best Fence would work on the MFT/3.

He ordered a MFT/3 and will check this out with his team and will post a video of the Best Fence on the MFT/3.

Let's see what they come up with....

FastCap is truly an amazing company. I did a report on them when I was earning my business degree in regards to their "LEAN" philosophy.

Thanks for the update.

Hi everyone I made a quick video showing how the best fence will work with the multifunction table.

That's great Paul !    Thanks for taking the time and effort in sharing the video.  [big grin]

Erock - Thanks for setting that up
Paul - Thanks for the video.

I bought the Kapex Table with my Kapex but wasn't sure about wings.
That video and modification puts me over the top towards buying the FastCap fence at this point.
I really like that fence and those stops for the miter saw - but being able to use it with the TS55 on the MFT as well as with the CMS-GE is going to be even better!

I'm trying to understand why you would want the Best Fence to connect to the MFT/3 instead of directly to the Kapex.

It would help support long pieces when using the MFT/3 for sanding, using a track saw or whatever.

Yep, that makes perfect sense.
