Ted, thanks for the compliment. I haven't changed anything and the short fence hasn't been an issue yet. The base is pretty simple. I boxed in the cavity below the blade, added a chip ramp, and a 6" port on the bottom rear. There's an additional hole in the top under the triangular piece for above fence collection.
Awesome job! I've never seen anything like it. It's sleek and unobtrusive. I'd say it's the Ferrari of RAS dust collection apparati. It's perfect for my needs. I'm sure I have all the materials in my scrap bin, too.
Have you thought of any more design upgrades besides the taller fence. What does the underside dust collection setup look like? Thanks, Hatch! Ted
Nice set up, but I'd like to see you practicing better safety with your tool.

I'm unsure if the model year. Probably 1960's.

What year was your RAS manufactured, Hatch? I've never seen that make before.
