What about drilling 5 or 6 1/4" holes in the fence for afixing sacrificial

That's what I did on the second fence.

I was thinking to do that with my Bies also, but never got around to it. I
was going to imbed inserts.

Is there for certain a flat on the backside of the Uni? That's important,
or I guess at least enough room for a 1/4" washer to span.

1-3/8" approx. for the whole length.

I'm gonna try to find a Uni to look at.

So just how do you attach feather boards, spaceblocks, and sacrificial
faces to a Unifence?

I have a Unifence and thats the most exasperating thing about it. Its
got that damned curved backside that prevents you from clamping
anything to it.

I have to admit to having an extra fence where I have permantly
attached a wooden face that has cuts for a dado and molding
cutterhead. Slide the primary off and this one on.

I have a set of griptite magnetic featherboards and holdowns and have
installed the supplied steel plate to my primary fence, resetting the
face to the scale.

There is a flat on the extrusion that will take a block and provide a
good clamp surface. A little trouble but works fine.
