Really neat fence addition

Post by Ed in Tampa »

I just was sent a video from Fine Woodworking showing a Aux fence some guy built.
I seems like a perfect addition to the Shopsmith fence. Especially for cutting bevels. The video shows cutting bevels on a normal saw but I can see it being very useful for cutting bevels on the Shopsmith.

I built that same fence a few years ago when it appeared in Fine Woodworking. I built it for my Powermatic table saw. It could be very easily adapted th any SS fence. It would be particularly useful on SS fences that don't have T tracks or the 510 fence that only has the T track on the top.

John, it's hard to like you when your jigs always look better than my projects!
