Super accurate and high quality hinge system which I use on my Benchdogs Ultra MFT. When used with the Benchdogs fence its helped save time ensuring all work pieces are square.
It would be even better if there was some form of quick release feature to get the track off the hinge system. My workbench is narrower than a 8x4 foot sheet so I have to disconnect the track currently when cutting those down.
Awesome fence, I love how it measures down to 0 under the track, which makes calibration super easy.
Would be even better if it was a little taller as I often cut 2x 18-19mm pieces at once on top of a sacrificial sheet to keep them identical, and its just a little bit short for that.
There’s too much play in the hing. I’m not sure if I’ve gotten a bad one or not, but the flip stop has play, as well as the micro adjustment. I went back to the old flip stops.
Hi Shuan. In with your flip stop you are supplied a few extra spring washers that can be changed out to reduce the play. there has to a eliment of movement in the thumb wheel otherwise this would not turn easier enough. For those that require a tighter tolorence the washers supplied are for that reason.
Great addition to my fence. Really makes cutting narrow pieces easy.
Overall a good design but there is some slop in the hinge mechanism that can introduce a small inaccuracy when positioning the track. I was able to wrap a single layer of painters tape around the long hinge screw that all but eliminated the play.
