Hi Frankie and welcome to the forum. You may be better off asking your question regarding your Triton in the Triton threads. Here (http://www.woodworkforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=15)

G'day Frankie and welcome to the show.:2tsup::2tsup::2tsup:

Lots of good woodworkers in Perth so you should get plenty of personal help, if needed.

Welcome to the forum.

I started on the Tirton about three years ago. Still using it as something prevents me from getting rid of it. Space and Money. :)

Post in the Tirton area and I am sure someone will be able to give you a hand.

thanks all>>>> i think i find these forums as difficult to use as i do cutting a straight line ..I am in a couple of them (caravan, 4wd) and have the same problem navigating them as this one :)hopefully all will be sorted one day
