Thanks for posting Bill. ? I am hoping that others will post their 4x6 modifications as well. ??


I¡¯m pretty much tapped out on any more mods for my saw. ?I might make some OO blocks to hold square tubing. ? I also might make an auxiliary vice to hold/position small parts.

Not sure if the attachments will work, but here is a simple fix that I did that saved many skinned knuckles.

Thanks for posting. ? ?Did you folks use thrust washers on the vise handle to take out the handle slop?

I have a bunch of pictures of the mods I did on my saw in the photo section.
