Does anyone have a Pro Fence Router Fence, item 521963, like the one found here? I picked one up today without documentation and I have some questions. TIA.

Wallpaperman, do you have the router table that goes with the Pro Fence Rounter Fence? If so, how happy with it are you. I've considered it, but it is a bit expensive. I'm sure I could build a router table, but I'm likely to never get around to it and must get a router table soon.

I just got the table as a part of the incra ultimate bundle. The table is nice, but the only reason I got it was because the cost of 520 style rails is the same as the cost of the table. If I had a 510 I would have gotten some extra rails from someone after an upgrade and built one myself. The plate is your basic phenolic plate...nothing special there. I had to do 30 minutes of fine tuned sanding to get my plate to fit.randythewoodchuck wrote:Wallpaperman, do you have the router table that goes with the Pro Fence Rounter Fence?

The table itself is like many of Shopsmith tables is a laminate over MDF and is nothing fancy. As noted, having the 520 rails is nice. The table mounting plate opening accepted (after some fine tuning) my Jessem lift. I used the table and fence a couple of times this weekend. Thanks for your help wallpaperman.randythewoodchuck wrote:Wallpaperman, do you have the router table that goes with the Pro Fence Rounter Fence? If so, how happy with it are you.

On these more expensive items, I would be tempted to place a small order for parts and hope to received my 20% email coupon to use on these higher priced items. Otherwise, I would have a hard time ponying up the list price.
