Review on Enhance Woodworking Precision with POWERTEC 71367 3-Inch Fence Flip Stop by Craig Galante

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Nicely made but the wrong size

This is a nice T track fence post, well made and looks great in Powertech blue. The big problem is that the tab on the bottom that fits into the T-slot slot is too small. The description says it's 11/32 inches wide, which is my mic size .34. However, My T Track's groove is about 0.38, which is almost identical to the Powertec T-Track. The difference between them, and there must be a difference for the stopper to slide is too big. This will allow the stop to easily rotate in place unless excessive force is applied. This can be helpful if carefully adjusted and then not bumped during repeated cuts. Apparently I just missed the 3 day return window as I ordered it before I built my saw. For precision work, I'll probably either make one with two T-bolts, or buy one with a longer and/or wider tongue, or two bolts.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Extendable
