Hi Les

This is my radial arm setup for strip ripping. very simple fence with springs from a washing machine on wooden cams. It works very well for me. I move the beast outside on strip ripping day and rig up a Heath Robinson out-feed support with whatever I can find at the time.

The radial produces lots of airborne dust, so I move it outside to reduce having to deal with the dust in the shop afterward and to get the extra space as I rip 20 foot boards.

I don't have a table saw but I have promised myself one before my next strip ripping session. The radial works, but it is not ideal.
