    As I mentioned in a previous video. I think it would be very helpful to those with small brains to have “packages” or “kits”to purchase the include the track tubes, mft tables, mft rails, etc other than me having to drill down all kinds of pages to try and ensure I don’t miss anything. Which results in me having to order additional parts that I forgot and have to pay shipping again.

    Nice product. I’ve been watching the evolution of the track tube over the last 3 years. As I recall, Dave Stanton developed the track saw rail adapter for bench dogs. although many are reproducing these days I do think you should be crediting him. I am also interested in the adapter for the nonslip pads for the centipedes base but don’t see them as an accessory on your site. Are they only available as part of the kit?

    • @glennsgarageshop

      It's been several years now, so my aged memory may be wrong, but I saw similar clips being used somewhere on social media. At the time, a couple different versions of the clip were available online to download and 3d print. This was around the same time (I think it was before) Dave Stanton started offering them for sale. I actually downloaded and printed them, but re-designed them to work better (I think) ... adding a design that had a slight spring action and a thumb tab. I've been using them in my own shop for years ... since 2018?

    • @glennsgarageshop
      @glennsgarageshop 7 днів тому

      I've bought the Bora tops for my centipede and didn't like the way it connected or fit. It barely fits over the support legs ... but, if you want to adapt your tops to the TrackTubes, just add three shorter sections of extrusions across the legs, then mount the TrackTubes to them with angle brackets. I use this method with my Rigid Sawhorses. This allows you to adjust the TrackTubes the exact width of the Bora tops and lets you use the side track if you need it. I hope this all makes sense.

    Extremely innovative. We made our own MFT top while using the Bora 2 by 4 stand. I braced a 1” by 2” with the supplied cups that Bora provides and its very stable. Although we use the UJK rail guide clips and they work well but i am very interested in learning more about your extrusion so I can mount a Festool Hinge. Do you sell tje extrusion separately? And if yes, do you have a video showing more about the extrusion with a mounted Festool hinge? Thank you for the innovation and keep up the great work!!

    Quick question. Did you use Pex A or Pex B with that maniblock? I have to plum my mother‘s entire house because a Plumber took advantage of my elderly lady when she called his company to fix a cracked polybutylene pipe. He charged her to plum almost the entire house, and made things go from bad to worse. Not only did he leave all the polybutylene that he was paid to replace, but the little cPVC he did install it Spewed hot Under her washing machine for year due to an improperly installed PVC compression fitting. Now I have to re-plumb the entire house and rebuild her laundry room and master bath. I’ve had to do some repairs and replace her hot water heater, switching out the polybutylene with pex. I’ve tried using both the compression ring and the crimp ring tools to secure the fittings under the house and it’s next to impossible. if anyone has advice, I would love to hear it. I think it would be easiest to do a homerun pex A maniblock system, and run the pipes under her mobile home. if I plum the house that way, I figured I won’t have to deal with trying to navigate the 12 inches of space between the ground and the floor joist trying to install elbows and tees. With only two connection points, one of the manifold and the other at the Fossett I figured that would be the easiest. Does anybody else have a better suggestion and does anyone know if they make a maniblock system for pex a ?
