Bushwacked Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) This seems like a decent idea for repeatable cuts ... a lot of money to get it setup, but nonetheless I still think it is a solid idea if you are cutting something quite a bit, but also need to move the fence around for other cuts ... https://www.woodpeck.com/rip-flip-fence.html?utm_source=bm23&utm_medium=email&utm_term=Woodpeckers+RIP-FLIP+Fence+Stop+System&utm_content=Only+3-Days+Left+to+Pre-Order+your+RIP-FLIP+Fence+Stop+System.&utm_campaign=11.21.20+Rip-Flip+Fence+Stop+System+R5&_bta_tid=09633242875476421803960484212407071197230545681865512639420057443441963987306585169527100076231891722523&_bta_c=0z3i0axvatzuuwg0x23dfrbvjf2ko Edited November 21, 2020 by Bushwacked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 That is slick! Honestly I watched the video and was guessing a price I was shocked to see that it was only $210 I was thinking that the red gold would’ve been $350-400. Not that I’m going to get one, neat product though! Thanks for sharing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing! hah! yes I was thinking the same ... it had to of been way more expensive and then was really surprised of the 'low' price tag 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 So, they make a version for the Powermatic and I ordered one. To be honest, I wasn't too interested until I saw the dado option. For me, that was the neatest part of the whole thing. Additionally, if you really break this red tool down, it would not be too hard to build your own version. There's just not much to it!

That an being able to slide it down an keep your setting. To bad they don’t make it for my rigid table saw. I don’t see me buying a powermatic or a saw stop ever so guess I’m out. Though I’ve always struggled a lil with sizing my dado stack perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why I brought up how easy it would be to build something similar to fit your saw.. When I get it, I'll try to remember to post good pics here so the rest can see it up close. This should help formulate the ideas to build to fit your own saw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like how you can add extra feet or whatever they are called. So you could have a dado setup and then like if you have other projects that have a lot of repeatable cuts you could set that up each time too and not lose your dado setting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodenskye (Bryan) Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I have to say, WP has some dumb ideas, but this isn’t 1 of them. I watched the video and was interested, but discounted cause no SS or PM. With the Vega front fence rail being round it would probably hard to DIY something.

I seen a jig to size it. Basically it was a 12x12 piece of ply with a bolt through the middle that had a wing nut and washer. Stack your dado set to the width you want and tighten it down to act like the arbor nut. Then slide a piece of scrap up next to your blade stack and check the width to your piece. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tmize Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 I basically do something close to that now. I use my Mdf out feed table stack the dado stack on it an run a scrap next to it. I may try that tho I’ve got some 1/2” rod at work I could use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'll be able to do something with it when I come home for Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seem to get me closer than just guessing. if a guy made the jig I think I would cut a notch in it where you could get a caliper to take a measurement as well. Just a thought..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
