Unless I use an extremely
long fence, theres no place to clamp a stop block. And a long fence would
just get in the way most of the time.
Miter Gauge Extension So in order to cut long pieces to length quickly
and accurately, I added a removable extension rail to the wood fence attached
to my miter gauge, as you can see in the main drawing. Then I made a stop block
to fit on the rail.
Extension Rail The extension rail is a piece of aluminum bar stock
that attaches to the back of the wood fence. (Youll find bar stock at most
home centers.) To hold the rail in place, I cut two notches in the bottom edge
of the aluminum bar to fit over screws installed in the fence. Tightening the
screws will secure the rail to the fence.
