Afternoon folks...to the OP, height to the top of the I-beam/worktable is 29". I remember an SS owner, cant remember his name on AS (avatar I believe shows his SS and a conveyor setup, from WI) but he added spacer blocks to where the front leg and rear axle leg/attachment points are...I remember he said he really like the increase in table height. The cam followers/roller bearings, return springs, return bumpers are not expensive at all to replace.
My plan is to bring my SS HD to the Tennessee GTG and let folks who may have never split with one, give it a go. Right now, I have a brother who is interested in purchasing it and told him I'd give him first stab it, but that he needs to have the money NLT mid-Nov, which he said was fine with him as far as a timeframe goes.
