Perfect! It positions the tool bottom .5" above the plinth, and has one
inch of vertical adjustment.

With the height of the *top* of the tool being the important
point. BXA handles up to 5/8" shank tools, and at least Carbide insert
tools tend to have the cutting edge at the same height as the top of the
shank, so you need to have your center height at least 1-1/8" (ideally a
little higher) above the top of the compound.

Enjoy,
DoN.
