DW788 rear table bracket

[Woodmangler]

Hi Guys

Using the suggestions to here, I went to a machinist friend (ya, they can sure be handy!  ) and brought him the stock rear table bracket and he made me this one. I installed it and tweaked the table until the blade was very close to 90 degrees front to back, and it really made a difference. Now it doesn't self feed, but instead lets me feed, and the cornering is a lot better.

Thanks to all for the suggestions and pictures. I will be playing all weekend now!

Very cool! You need to paint it DeWalt yellow. Then nobody will ever notice it.
See if he is willing to make more for sale.

You beat me to it DG, was going to suggest he made loads more for woodmangler to sell, especially if the problem is widespread on the saws.

The blade was not 90 degrees front to back. The stock rear table bracket is not adjustable, so you cannot adjust the table angle front to back. The new bracket allowed me to adjust the table angle so that the saw blade to table angle is now very close to 90 degrees.

The guy said they would be around $30 apiece... I didn't really pay for mine, traded him a desk name plate... you guys think that is reasonable or no?
