Description of ๐Ÿ”จ Fulton Dual Deluxe Stackable Featherboards: Enhanced Precision and Versatility for Table Saws, Router Tables, and Band Saws

What is a featherboard you might ask? Is it something I need for my workshop? Well the short answer is yes. Anyone who has a table saw or router table should seriously consider having at least one. Most work shops have more than one handy at any given time. Featherboards are simple devices that help keep your stock up against the fence your running your stock on. They generally act like a third hand by helping you control your stock while you push your stock through. The Fulton Dual Deluxe Stacked Featherboard can be used as one unit or can be separated and used for vertical and horizontal applications. When the featherboards are stacked with the included 2โ€ tall spacers, youโ€™ll have a full 3-7/8โ€ worth of holding pressure height. This means you can hold taller stock for re-sawing projects on table saws and band saws! When using the featherboards separately, one can be installed into a miter slot and the other can be installed into a track on a fence. Many featherboards come with a miter bar locking system that typically do not fit very well. We identified this issue and have redesigned the miter bar making it far more secure and easier to lock into your miter track. The aluminum bar is longer than older designs and is a bit more narrow in the center. This means that when the knob is secured and the bolt is properly seated, the bar spreads out much better than before and creates a nice tight fit into your miter track. This dual featherboard also includes 11โ„2โ€ long 1โ„4โ€ x 20tpi t-bolts. This gives you the option to mount the featherboards into small t-track slots. These t-track slots are most commonly used on router table tops and router table fences. This means you can use the featherboard vertically on a router table fence or horizontally laying flat on a router table or table saw top surface. The dual featherboard comes with all the necessary hardware to get going right out of the box. Each featherboard measures approximately 73โ„4โ€ tall by 7-1/8โ€ wide which is ideal for most workshop fences and table saw tops. Please keep in mind that some job site table saws and router tables have a short distances from the end of the table to the cutter or blade. The featherboard must be completely inside the track or slot in order for it to properly work.

Fulton Dual Deluxe Stackable Boards with Risers

A good all round product that has many uses. Can be connected to a T-bar or miter saw, can be used as 2 individual floorboards or as one tall board. It comes with all the necessary hardware and appears to be a very reliable product. In price comparison, it is reasonable compared to products that only have 2 spring boards.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Problems

The price is right, but there are a few points.

This kit is mostly functional. The kit includes everything you need to attach the board to the fence. The pads fold well to give you extreme dado options. My only criticism is that it is a task to securely attach the board to the guide on my saw table. You have to work to screw them in or they will slip off. And riffing on plastic screws makes me nervous. I hope I don't break in a week after posting.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model

Good price for all features but not GTS1031

Great value for money. I bought more from Fulton that I liked and settled on this feather board. Unfortunately it will not fit a benchtop circular saw like the GTS1031. Note that the instructions state that the front should be 2 inches from the start of the blade and in that position only one of the legs is in the angled slot. It's too big for my table saw. Overall it's solid and I really like all the features and want it to match my table saw.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not sure

Clumsy but protects fingers and other injuries

I don't like using gadgets, but I've seen a few workshop accidents and the circumstances are always such that you wonder how that could have happened. This pin board can be stacked or used in a standard configuration. If tuned in correctly, you stand a great chance of less misfortune. I type with ease on my phone and I want it to stay that way. After all, kickback can be deadly and this invention aims to help you avoid all kinds of unpredictable accidents. Be sure.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Working speed

Wedges at an angle - SHIT!

Everything is great except for the angled V-grooves that hold everything in place. HOWEVER, you NEED those angled slotted wedges for it to actually work, otherwise the entire kit is POSSIBLE. I ordered two sets based on the reviews here on Revain. I got eight wedges from two sets. Just two of them fit nicely in the grooves without having to put a lot of torque on the knobs. By huge torque I mean over 100 feet! The two of EIGHT that work well, tighten well and clamp well with normal knobโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • I don't like anything about it, everything is fine

Overall this is the best plastic feather board I have ever used

They are great, they have room for improvement. Overall, these are my favorite spring-loaded plastic boards (I've used two other brands). The hardware included in this kit offers excellent value for money. This type of plastic seems a bit more durable than other brands. (More like ABS, less like PVC). Straight slots make it easy to adjust the distance from the fence. (The bent nut is a real pain because the bolt gets stuck, avoid it). Three disadvantages: #1 Springs are of different lengths. So

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Clarity
