wp34:
This is a great thread.  I'm in the middle of redoing my workspace and have gotten some great ideas already.  Especially for my pegboard arrangement.

Badmouth - I have that same saw and have been considering upgrading/extending the fence as well.  Could you send me a link to what you bought? 

Thanks!

Mike A:
That's a great work space. I have the cheaper Ridgid saw with the same Vega fence. I use the same tool boxes for my power tools, but I don't have a label maker. I use masking tape. I even have the same foot pedal.

Nephasth:
Tip: Don't use your lap as a work surface.

Jimbo:
Man... I wish I had more space... you could fit my entire workshop in the space of your workbench!

It is a Vega 40 PRO.  (because I might build 39" upper cabinets for my kitchen someday)
I'm not sure whether to recommend it or not.  It has worked flawlessly, but the fit and finish feel a bit homemade. 
The cap in the end of the tube is identical to what would be found on a roll of dollar store christmas wrapping paper.
I paid $260 from Vega through Amazon and would recommend it for that price.  No way I'd recommend it for $369.

Here is what amazon gives me as the original product link, although the description is for an earphone cable.  :dunno
https://www.amazon.com/WDEAHK-Earphone-Cable-Converter-Compatible/dp/B000022621/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

I'd say the reviews on there are accurate.

EDIT: I still have the original Ridgid fence if you want to try your hand at extending your fence using that.  ;)
