Yeah, i figgered it should be thicker. Why the difference in placement, though? Edited March 30, 20197 yr by Gene Howe Report

April 12, 20197 yr comment_186905 I have a Delta Unifence that will slide front to back. (It was before they started doing Beismeyer-style fences). It works great this way. Also flips so you can use it to trim off a top layer like veneer. But it makes it difficult to make jigs to strattle the fence. Report
