I'll ask you the same question that I have for Tom. If I push the
stock between the fence and the bit from the other direction it should
be the same as their setup in terms of proper feed direction. I would
need to have something to hold the stock tight to the fence. Is this
sufficient to make this safe?

Thanks for the reply.

It will work OK; but why buy it if you have a tablesaw or RAS. The fence
used for reference is not the router fence, but the new fence on the
outboard side (that you still have to supply). You will pushing the stock
into the bit rotation, so it is safe. Do not try to push stock between the
bit and the router table fence; that is where you have safety issues.

My question is mostly one of safety. I considered jointing small
stock this way and was advised to never to push wood between the bit
and a fence. Anyone want to confirm this advice and if so, would the
featherboards help to completely eliminate the danger of doing so?

If the link doesn't work just search on their site for "stock sizer".

Thanks

PS
Also a small disclaimer that I own and love many of Woodhaven's
products... I am just worried about how this works.
