DIYbanter - Router table fence (woodworking #144)

Jonathan,

You can order that issue from FWW on line. Or perhaps you could contact Pat
Warner directly ( http://www.patwarner.com ) since he's the author and see
if he can sell you a copy of the article. It's obviously copyrighted and
FWW and Pat deserve to be compensated for their efforts.

That said, I built that fence when it came out and I use it on almost every
project. It's a pleasure to use, will serve you well and definitely a great
project to build. Making it calls for a couple of precision cuts (you can
do it) and you should read the short blurb about it on Pat's site if you
haven't already.

As for other plans like it. Well, a search of Google for "router fence" will
probably turn up more hits than fleas on a dog. An old 2x4 will work as a
fence but if you want a real solid workhorse, precision and repeatability -
this is one helluva fence. Freud came out with a their version of a
micro-adjustable fence a couple of years back and I got my hands on one to
try. Good idea (I think they borrowed Pat's idea) but their implementation
was absolutely horrible. It flexed, had plenty of slop and you could not get
repeatable settings.

You won't realize how good this design really is until after you have used
the fence - then you're hooked. Now if you don't need that kind of
precision, then his site and books have other examples for fences that are
easier to build.
