Some good points! There is no miter slot (the Veritas short one too).
Personally, I'm not sure I will use it much. I haven't used the one that I
have now, I simply using the fence.
Both the MCLS and the Veritas are less expensive models. I think it's time
to contact Grizzly, the reason behind my purchase for the most part is to
make cabinet doors. If I can get 36" of travel off of the sliding table then
I'm getting closer to a go. If not then either the Veritas $324.00 or the
MCLS $345.95 shipping included. will look better, the Grizzly is up to
$396.00 .....

Thanks, Joe

looking for pro's & con's... the table appears to offer what I need...

just
want to see how others think about it.


I have a cast iron sliding table on my table saw and I love it. I'm not

sure
I see that a sliding table on a router table adds that much value,
especially an aluminimum one. The sliding table is only useful for wood
lengths of 26-27" or less. How do you use featherboards from the side?
There's no miter slot and you cannot use magnetic devices on an aluminum
table.
