After almost three years of having it in a box under my table saw, I finally installed a cast iron General router table wing on my SawStop table saw. It was not an exact fit and I had to make some serious modifications. Because of the difference in wing sizes, I decided to install a cherry and walnut cutting board tail-piece. I had the lumber as scraps from a recent paddle build and hutch repair. Everything was glued up, a coat of Silver Tip 2-part epoxy was applied, sanded, and then 3 coats of marine spar varnish topped it all off.SawStop now makes a router table wing and router lift that bolts right in, but they didn't when I bought both the saw and wing. That said, the do-it-yourself option with the General or similar wing and lift is less than 1/2 the cost of the SawStop option.I documented the whole overbuilt process in a 2-part YouTube Video series and in part 1, I went over the steps I took getting the wing installed and mounted correctly and the installation of the router lift, plus a few tips. For the second of two videos, I detailed the fence installation, the vacuum box and dust collection, and the steps I took in making and installing the over-built wooden tail piece.Part 1:https://youtu.be/Zu1VS1Ef45oPart 2:
