- Big Thank you for those of you who have been so amazing with your support, patience and patronage.
This is just a quick video showing how to install the Clamp on infeed table design for table saws with square tube fence guide systems.

Wish I had read these comments before starting install. I had all the same problems but made it work. No problem.
Just purchased 1 of the few left from Taylor Tool. Installed on my Harvey Table Saw. Needed to shave off a heavy 1/16" and it fits great. Excellent design. Thanks for all your videos.
Received mine two days ago. It is the newer version and I couldn't be happier. Installed on a Laguna F2 (older model) with a couple of passes on the router table it fit like a glove. Will send dimensions if you would like to have them. Thanks Izzy
Installed my infeed table today. It works great and I'm sure that my cross cut sled will be much safer to use. Couple of comments:
1) I received a mirror image of the table shown in your videos. In my opinion, this is a improvement. Thank you.
2) Your installation video STATES that the cam clamp should be installed in one hole and the video SHOWS it in another. For my SawStop. The hole shown on the video works and the where you said to install it is too close. It was easy to remove the threaded insert and install it into the correct hole.
3) my threaded insert required a 6mm hex wrench. 1/4" is too large. No big deal.
4) when initially installed, the infeed table was higher than my table saw. This made it impossible to pull my crosscut sled back over the table. I solved the problem by cutting a 1/10" rabbit in the bottom front of the infeed table. The small screws to attached the aluminum angle were too long but grinding the points down solved that. I have a very old SawStop. Brought back when the only way to get one was to purchase it from SawStop. (perhaps that is why I had to cut the rabbit)
Again. great product and thanks for inventing it!!!!!!!!!!!!
All of the above. Installed mine today. Seems to be a good upgrade.
Looking forward to trying it.
Got mine and installed. Thanks.
Simple and effective!
Sorry to be spamming. Just excited about my new toy I guess. I think for a ‘version 2’ it would be good to have the metal plate extend out more past where the cam attaches. Provide more support, and would allow the cork to be placed more centerline of the rail to lessen the teeter totter and lifting action against the indeed table when caming it into place. I’m also struggling with the lobe on the cam being the right size in any hole. Wondering if a more “lobed” cam would give greater reach between holes.
Not meaning these as complaints, they are given as constructive feedback! We love you Izzy!
Hey Izzy
Thanks a bunch!
I added some painters tape shims to the cam (4 thicknesses) and it’s looking great.
Haven’t had a chance to try it yet but it holds nicely!
All the best
Pretty slick!
I will have to order one
I received my infeed table yesterday. A few things to note before you order. First, my table is backwards from the version shown here. Somewhat frustrating because I planned to use this on the miter slot to the left of the blade, ensuring the cutout would give me access to the saw because of the cutout on the right hand side. The version I received however looks to be created for the right hand side miter slot, with the cutout on the left side of the infeed table. The version I received also has a mechanical clamp instead of the wood one. I think this is likely an upgrade, but there are no holes on the back or installation instructions. Not doubt I will figure this out, but it would be nice to have an updated video to match the product that is sold.
Got mine today. Ordered on 8-12. Can’t wait to install it and try it.
Follow up: Installed. My template is reversed from the one in the video. Doesn’t seem to matter. I also used the next screw hole down. The one suggested seemed loose, even though I have a SawStop. Haven’t fully tested it yet. Waiting for Loctite to set.
👍👍👍👍cool
Seems like for my rail I’ll be adding more shim the entire width of the rail as the narrow metal with cork teeter totters and wants to cant vertically when rotating the lever. Lever will probably also get a layer of rubber or something as it doesn’t quite cam enough in hole 6, and cams too much in hole 5 from the table top. The plywood of the cam is also deforming after just a couple of attempts to snug the board in place and a rubber or cork around the cam should help distribute the pressure more evenly in addition to giving it better spacing.
I’m assembling mine tonight for my sawstop and mine is flipped compared to this video. Hrm?!?!?
Will have to crawl underneath and make sure I pick the right hole for the cam lever. Appears to be farthest hole to the table top.
Also my threaded insert wasn’t a 1/4” like the video, it was a metric 6. Hope this helps others that end up with opposite curve and metric insert.
Also oddly my sawstop fence must be lower than izzys as my height isn’t right either. Will need to shim.
I have the PSC31230 pro saw with the 52” fence if that helps anyone.
Thanks Izzy for all the great videos!
Edit: well crap, I appear to be between holes for the insert as well. :(
Pretty straightforward. Are you going to be doing one on installing the Dewalt jobsite saw model?
Yes
I have a Grizzly that has a angle iron rail are you going to have one for them?
still waiting to see that dewalt version or is that even possible? you know, the one with the rack an pinion
Where can I get one of those center finders?
Great product and video Sir Izzy!
most hardware places have them definitely could order one off amazon
@@whatizzyupto6141 Cool, thank you!
You need to put a locktite on the threaded insert so it stops jumping from hole to hole. lol
hahaha
I received mine a couple of weeks ago , opened the box and opened this video. I was very disappointed. I apparently had not looked carefully at the earlier videos. It does not fit on my Kobalt saw. In fact, it does not fit on any saws without a separate bar for the fence. I have sent several emails asking for a refund, but have received not response. Who is minding the store?
This time I will do it manually with the help of Woodglut designs.
I really like the Woodglut plans.
