I was chcking out the Veritas on line last night. The micro-adjust
feature is very appealing. On the shop-fox I own, the fence will move
with too much force. Th knife style gauge own is made of rosewood so
the thumb screw really tightens down good against the wood. If it
locks down tightly like you said, I might give it a try.


The Veritas tightens like a router collet, so it compresses uniformly
against the shaft. I like the microadjust, but save a few bucks and get
the one without graduations.

The TiteMark uses a pointed thumbscrews that lock into a V-groove in the
shaft.
