Bought it for my table saw bought at Sears, but it didn't have all the parts when I got home to use it and it doesn't fit the table saw. Can't find receipt (or S.O. tossed it), so stuck with it.

I actually purchased this for my router table but ended up using it on my portable table saw to help in ripping some long boards and it worked out great, im thinking of getting another one.
James G on Nov 4, 2016
This feather board will be very helpful in keeping longer boards snug against the fence when running through a table saw. I made an equivalent item but my homemade one takes a lot of time clamping it in place. This one also can be used on either side of the blade, which will be handy at times. Jim Hearn

I purchased this feather board for my Ryobi 10" table saw. Unfortunately, the metal track did not fit in my table saw grooves. Anyhow, I easily sanded the metal guide down to the proper size. Now the feather board works great.

Does this product come complete with fittings to attach to my router fence ?
Dazzer on Jun 20, 2015
BEST ANSWER: Pretty sure it does not (will double check when I get home tonight). It's made to sit in the sled channels of, your router/table saw table, however be sure it'll fit yours. My table saw's channels are too narrow (probably too old).
My table saw has a 'dovetail' (or perhaps you might call it 'T') shaped guide slot. Will this fit?
Brigitte G on Feb 7, 2016
BEST ANSWER: It did not work with my portable Craftsman jobsite saw with the t-shaped slot. Works great with my Delta shop table saw.
How do you secure the adaptor and featherboard in the miter slot?
Craig F on Dec 18, 2016
Bench Dog® Single Feather-Loc®, Multi-Purpose Featherboard
Bench Dog® Single Feather-Loc®, Multi-Purpose Featherboard
Bench Dog® Miter Slot Adapter 10-012
Bench Dog® Miter Slot Adapter 10-012
BEST ANSWER: If you look at the two holes in the metal adaptor you will notice they have a taper; one side is large in diameter. So the bolts go in the holes with the head of the bolt on the side which is larger and when the nuts tighten up the metal will spread out the sides of the adaptor locking it in the miter slot.

Another way to say it is, put the bolts through the adaptor, head of bolt in the wider hole. Put the adaptor in the miter slot with the bolts sticking up. Put the featherboard on the bolts and tighten the nuts. The adaptor will spread out from the pressure of the bolts acting as a wedge and lock the whole thing in the miter slot.

Good luck. This one works well and you can swap the adaptor, bolts and nuts to another featherboard, or make one out of a piece of 1/2 inch lumber and have lots of shapes.
Can it be used for cutting on
either side of blade?
Andy L on Dec 7, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Yes. It can be turned over and used on either side.
My slot is 7 1/4 inches from the blade. Does the featherboard have that much adjustment?
Jimbo on Jan 1, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Of course it depends on the width of your board but in most circumstances more than enough
Can anyone tell me the dimensions of this? I need to know the longest reach it has from the track to the end of the feathers.
RinBarrett on Dec 3, 2015
BEST ANSWER: Overall dimensions of the assembled "Feather Loc" is 8 1/8" tall and 10" wide at its widest setting. 6 1/4" from the bottom of the track to the bottom of the feathers. These dimensions are approximants. I've had 2 of these for a while and love them. I use them quite a bit.
I have a delta table saw with a slot for a feather board and it holds the wood up against the table saw guide so it's nice and tight when I rip something. Although it has worked great in the past I am noticing that when I run a piece of wood through the feather board is now starting to slide. I have tightened the tee nob up as much as I could but the feather board still moves. The round tapered bolt holds but the tee bolt does not spread the plastic enough to keep it in place. Any help would be appreciated.
David L on Feb 14, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Be sure the round tapered bolt is in the forward position and the T nut is in the back. I cannot get mine to slip no matter how I position it, except when the tapered bolt is behind the T nut.
I don't understand when you say "the tee bolt does not spread the plastic enough", since the spreading part is metal. Anyway, try making sure the tapered bolt is in the front and the metal part has the taper in the front also.

The featherboard itself is fine, the handles are made of a soft plastic and of marginal quality. Even a moderate amount of tightening will cause the nut to break free of the handle. At this point I have to go to a local woodworking store and buy a different style of handle, a shame. Editor's note: No need to go to another source. Our customer service at 800-376-7856 will be able to assist with replacement for the broken knob.

Bench Dog Featherboard knobs
I love this feather board. It replaced a homemade one made from a 1 x 4 my father made that lasted 30 years. I've seen references to the knobs and my experience was that my knobs were poorly made and after a dozen or so uses they separated from their nuts, and they were NOT over-tightened. I easily fixed it by replacing the 1/4-20 nuts with wing nuts, cutting slots in the knob shanks so the knob handles were perpendicular to the wing nuts.

I have used this product for...
I have used this product for over a month and have had absolutely NO problems. I disagree with the comments about the knobs being poorly built. It is NOT necessary to tighten the knobs super tight which is probably why the knobs have not held up. I love this item and use it daily and would recommend it to anyone!

Works ok but the plastic 'T'...
Works ok but the plastic 'T' handles need reinforcement. The handle that tightens the unit to the T-slot failed the first time I used it. Disappointing considering the price and that other Bench Dog products I have are pretty decent. Editor's note: Our customer service at 800-376-7856 will be able to assist with replacement for the broken knob.

The first time I used it...
The first time I used it the plastic knobs twisted off. I used gel super glue to hold them on. The fingers on mine are warped. Not a well made product in my opinion. Editor's note: Our customer service team at 800-376-7856 will be able to assist with replacment knobs.

I have purchased other Bench Dog products in the past and I was very disappointed that they would put out a product like this. The plastic T handles immediately stripped when applying minimal force.

I had to modify the slots slightly to accommodate the 5/16 bolts on my fence mount but otherwise it is an excellent design.

I have used a feather loc...
I have used a feather loc for a few years now. Works ok but has a few flaws. It is difficult to adjust quickly making it inconvenient at times. It does not lock in the slot securely unless you use a lot a of turning force. Use is limited since it is tied to the miter slot location. Reasonably often the cut configuration won't allow use of the loc. Much safer to use this than nothing but thinking of getting a magnetic type. Should be more flexible in terms of placement and faster to set.

Bench Dog Tools
I just purchased these tools and have used them with a great deal of surprise. They added a much better cut and most of all the safety they provide. They are easy to set up and use. Highly recommend this product.

I bought this feather board for my table saw to hold thin stock against the fence while ripping. It has two adjustment knobs, one of which spreads an aluminum insert in the miter slot to lock the feather board in place. Although it is plastic, it works very well, and is a good value.
