    Shop Made Elevating Mechanism

    Hello All,
    I've made an improvement to the elevating mechanism on a Dewalt RAS. I used old Craftsman RAS gears, shop made brackets, and parts from the hardware store. The gears have 2:1 ratio so adjusting the cut is 1 turn at the new crank equals 1/16" up or down.
