I am in the (gradual) process of replacing some shelving in the garage and trying to build a track saw cutting station. It should give me a bit more worktop space in the garage and make it easier to cut some bits of wood that are a bit large for the table saw but in a small garage.
The unit will be up against the wall. I am just starting to think about how best to fix the track in place relative to the holes. I think there are three broad solutions:
1) use some fittings to attach the track to the side of a couple of dogs
2) buy some dogs that allow the track to slot onto the top
3) use a rail hinge system, either made or bought
I had thought that the hinge would be the easiest to use, but am not sure how much space it will need at the back by the wall and therefore whether this is a workable solution.
I was wondering what other people use and any advice on which way to go?
Thanks,
Mark
