I added wings to my saw a few months ago that allow me to rip 44" to the right and about 26"ish to the left. It gets used it as a desk/design table/assembly table/soldering table/glue up table so it gets pretty chewed up... I am using melamine because I like the slick white surface, it's cheap and I like a nice clean fresh surface every couple months. I am happy with the melamine but want a quicker way to replace it.
So, planning to use 1 1/4" aluminium angle mounted inside the fence rails. That would allow me to drop in a new top, shim it, screw it through the angle from the bottom and be done in 10 to 15 minutes vs the hour it takes now. Any better ideas or thoughts?
