I must agree with another reviewer. This is a must have safety product.This should come with a saw like a miter gauge. You must either build one or purchase this one. Don't wait until you need it for a project because you might find yourself just being extra careful on that cut like I found myself several years ago. I pride myself on being safe in the shop and in life in general. I ,however, cross cut a 1 x 4 using the rip fence one too many times and found myself with two nice little bruises on my belly. It hurt like crazy. I knew better and had heard Norm say not to do it several times. I now know why. I didn't want to spend the money on the device. Please don't hesitate to purchase this product. I was lucky to only have three bruises, two on my belly and one directly to my pride. Four stars because it is nice perfectly one inch.

Good, but not perfect - James Orzech - Danielsville, PA
I just received my cutoff fence and assembled it to the instructions. I measured the width from the angle to the fence surface. It measured 1.045. That was a little to much for me. I then took my toolmakers square and found out that the aluminum angle was out of square. The fence does have an adjustment screw to correct this, but it is to adjust the out of square in only one direction. My fence was out the other way. To make a long story short I removed the angle and sanded it square and to the right thickness on my delta 12" with 80 grit paper. The fence was .760 and the angle is now .240 = 1.000. One thing I forgot to mention, after you drill the fence material make sure you counter sink the holes so when you mount the angle that it sits real flat.
