Katz-Moses released a video talking about a new upcoming jig rail they are making. The rails are an interesting design, so I was interested to find out if it would fit the Shopsmith since the miter gauge is 23/32" instead of the more common 3/4". I asked about about it in the comments and the Katz-Moses team replied that it would fit the Shopsmith miter gauge tracks. If this is true, when released, it will be an option for making jigs.

I have some of them. As others on here have commented, some of them do not fit the SS miter slot.

Has there been any mention of the price point?

Brenda,
Admittedly some didn't quite fit. Too tight. Fit snugly but wouldn't slide.
I addressed this issue with their rep. Because SS slots are smaller, a slight touch with a sander to the top guide bar
should solve the problem.
Bottom line... it did.

I am not saying that sandpaper is not an option when the microjig miter bar does not slide correctly. The Katz-Moses jig rail is just a different option for those interested. My post was just to let people know about it and that it would be an option for use on a Shopsmith.
