Can be made to fit almost any existing router table. Open up the
possibilities for new router profiles!

Very cool and well thought out fence you got there Brian..... If that
thing was aluminum...... you might be the next competitor with Incra!

+1. I could see it selling very well.


Sorry, but I don't. I would think a tilting router base would work
better. The gap at the bottom shows no support and that is a minus.

How about a small chamfer on the back to lower the fence front when it's
angled?
It's for a router. How thin would the work be to be able to use a router?

It's not the fence, its the workpiece. It is off the table where it is
being cut. , I would rather have the piece sitting on the table.
Secondly, with it off, I could not put a zero clearance insert in there.
While not necessary, it's more controllable. I realize a CNC router
doesn't have zero clearance. But there are definitely times you need it.

Brian's works, and works well, but it is a little bit of a compromise
for this reason. In his example it makes it difficult to determine depth
and height. If the piece lies flat on the table you know the depth and
height.



Sorry Brian, I didn't mean to rain on your parade. But support is
everything, so is contact, its good, but not great.

I have seen tilting router supports for sale, and a nice home made from
Matthias. I would not use the gear that he used, but I might use the
screw drive that he had, just coupled differently.
