User Comments about the Bench Dog 40-011 Feather-Loc Double Featherboard for Table Saws & Router Tables

I have used cheap plastic featherboards before, and really liked them. They are plenty long, so they reach the router fence in any position.2. Also the non-parallel slots are not well designed. Two things I do like about these. Take these back to the drawing board Bench Dog.Let me start by saying I love my Bench Dog router plate, but these featherboards are way too stiff.


Back off slightly, and they offer no contact at all. These are way too stiff. 1. They indicate feed direction, so when your brother in law borrows your router table he won't hurt himself. You usually can't even force the material past the featherboards.


Every so often I take them to the band saw and cut off another plastic finger - still too stiff. Try another brand, these aren't any good. This is minor compared with the stiff fingers.


Ive read more than a few rather unfavorable reviews for this set.Ive had these a while, haven't used these all that much, but have not found any real problems.Its obvious to me you do not get the miter attachment, and I dont have any trouble adjusting with the angled slots. There is a perfectly good reason for that.Who else sells 2 decent feather boards for under $10 each (on sale).



It is not meant to be used in a table saw miter slot.The table saw bar has two ends. These items are sold as router accessories, so as other reviews have noted, the slider bar must be purchased to use them on the table saw.The plastic bar that comes with these are to hold the items to the cardboard packaging. The non-expanding end goes on the out-feed side. When tightened, this anchors the bar in place. I use these regularly on both my table saw and router, but mostly on my table saw. One end expands and the other does not. This anchors the out-feed side to the slide bar.I know we all just take the things off the card and throw away the card without reading the directions, but the card for the slide bar does give a description of how this device is supposed to be installed.I have never applied more than 1/4 turn, probably not more than 1/8 turn, past finger tight and have never had a problem with slippage. The expanding end must be installed on the in-feed side.



Works great if you have t-slots. But does what they are supposed to do. Be nice if they would include a rail that would fit a miter slot as well.



Bought a crown molding cutter to use on hard maple. PS. Stuck with it now. Guess they really dont care as poor reviews for some time now. Never have I seen a 1/4" T-Slot.


Lesson learned, will never buy from Bench Dog again. Guess I'm not the first to be taken by poor advertising. As I'm buying the cutter the Bench Dog featherboard pops up and I check it out and buy it. When I bought my crown cutter it had in bold numbers 1/4" SHANK.1/2" SHANK. Didnt look close enough though, are you kidding me,never even heard of a 1/4" T-Slot.
