Part 2 of 3
I need a wing in my table saw. For one, it will fill in empty, unused space, between my fence rails on the right side of my saw. Second, it will help my rip fence glide better when I have to rip wide stock. Finally, it will serve as a base for me to later install a router lift and router plate. 

In part 2 I construct the metal frame that will attach to the table saw fence rails and support the wing.  I half/bolted and half/welded some 3/4 x 3/4 x 1/8 steel angle to the rails.  Then I used some 3/8" hex cap screws as table levelers.  Once everything was flat to my liking, I locked it all down from the underside with a couple of drywall screws.
