Milescraft1406 FeatherBoard for Router Tables, Table Saws and Fences Medium

If you are in need of a feather board for woodworking, this is a great choice. I should have started using one long before I bought this one. One nice feature is the design where you can adjust the angles. Nice amount of play in the fingers. I noticed some reviews complaining about it not tightening snug in the tracks, but I didn't have any problems with using it. Comes with additional T Slot bolts and 3/4 & 5/8 inch miter bars. I fully agree with the notion of "the better the tool, the better the results". Usually the better the tool , the more expensive it is. There is a middle ground where you can find reasonable tools that perform as well as the more expensive ones...and that's all you need. That's when we can apply the term "value", and this feather board being possibly the least expensive, gives you good value. I have bought other Milescraft accessories in the past. I found them to be well made, excellent performance, and reasonably priced. Brand recognition as well as price helped with my decision, along with the well thought out design.

Used in an older table saw, only worry was that to get the feather board to stay in place, you had to tighten the knobs that held the feather board to the saw very tightly to get it to lock in where you wanted it. Once tightened, worked very well, held the moldings I was trimming consistently in place. All good.

Since so many have expressed problems over their Ryobi table tops, I offer the following, which I had posted as a sub-comment elsewhere:"There may be a lot of other choices if you have a table saw with standard ¾" mitre slots or a table with an iron table top. But if, like me, you have a Ryobi or other saw with neither of those, This Milescraft product is the only option I have been able to find on the market. But it needs a few adjustments and improvements. First, the incorrect washers provided by the manufacturer promotes binding. You can correct this by replacing them with fender washers about 1" across with ¼" hole. And a little lubricating in the slots that the bolts slide in makes the featherboard very easy to adjust.In addition to providing better washers, I strongly recommend that the manufacturer alter the 5/8th" slot guide (by removing about ⅛" by ⅛" of the material along both its right and left top sides, to enable it to fit inside the mitre guide slots of Ryobi table tops - which have tabs jutting out of the tops of the groves -). They can email me through Amazon if they have any questions. Although I would have preferred NOT to, I had to file off those tabs on MY table top, with a power grinder to get the Milescraft slot guides to fit into the mitre slots. The product works great for me NOW!

nothing it was great

I have a 40 year old 8" Craftsman tablesaw and I have been using a homemade wooden featherboard. It works OK - but it takes a long time to clamp it to the tablesaw with a variety of C-clamps - the underside of the table is not flat. I stumbled across this Milescraft featherboard and thought for $15 - I would give it a try. The clamps hold very tightly in the 5/8" slot in my table. It does take a little wiggling to get the clamping mechanism adjusted - but it really only takes 10 seconds to get it set up. I wonder why the one channel is kinda S-shaped - not straight like the other ?The bottom like is this Milescraft featherboard works very well on my little, old, Craftsman table saw.I highly recommend it

My saws miter slots are far enough from the blade that this can only get about 2 inches away. Really not useful. It doesn't secure to the slot well when full extended either. Last, it's just a pain to adjust.

Really helped speed things up on my router table! The slot on my table was really shallow, but this held fine.

I agree with 'A-Dog's earlier comment concerning use of this feather board for rip cuts somewhat close to the blade. My first use of this item ripping 1-1/4" off of a 1x8 board went fine; that is, the feather board was firmly set in place, and did not move. The next time I went to use it for the same application, I could not get the bolts tight enough for firm mounting without the use of some channel lock pliers. For my next use on one of these "shave cuts", I'm going to find nuts to replace the red plastic handles and tighten them down with a ratchet.The fingers are stiff and hold very tight without being flexed very much, so you might not need to be as close to the blade as you think.Overall, I like this feather board and think it's a pretty good value. I recommend it, but with the above caveats.Please don't do like they do on Instagram and take your guards off, and stay safe out there!

Excelente ferramenta auxiliar para evitar o kick back de peças na hora de cortar a madeira na serra de bancada. Encaixa se perfeitamente no trilho da serra de mesa Dewalt . Deve se encaixar em outros trilhos também porque é ajustável. Assim, pode ser usado em paralelo a peça . Se vc quiser usa lo na vertical, vai precisar instalar um trilho t track na régua da serra. Neste caso, o trilho usado pode ser um com rasgo de 19.3 mm ou menos. Gostei bastante.

excelente compra de mucha ayuda para mi sierra de mesa

This is an excellent featherboard, works as it should. Found out that my table saw isn’t standard for the hardware included to attach it, but this was an easy fix with a couple of washers. Definitely recommend if you don’t have time to make your own.
