Hi Bud

The link would be a hard one to find but it's a easy setup and will be the one I use on the new little table,,

It's just a 90 deg.fence, it has a slot on the left side of the fence that runs both ways like a X or to say a small t that lets the fence move from side to side or back ,, the other end is a hole that it pivots on,,,,both are screw into tee nuts from the bottom side of the top.
The one I have setup on the big table it has a snap pin on the right side that I just lift up and free...(from Grizzly .com)

The new one I'm going to make for the small router table will just be some of that white stuff ( like yours) but with the slots on on end and the tee nuts in place to hold it and no upright on the fence maybe a vac, pickup on the back side of the fence, still playing with that one ,maybe a longer bit guard to hold the hose end right behind the bit... still playing with that one.

They work so well and are so fast when moving the fence out of the way for a bit change or a pop out of the router motor...
I also made a small jig on the back side so I could put the fence right back in the same place it was in b/4 the bit change, many of the router bits have the same size bearing and it makes it easy to reset it right back to the same spot.

I just took a look around to find a good shot of the fence and I don't have one but if you want one just ask and I will post one.

Bob, somewhere on this site you posted something about how you do a swing fence and how you attach it to the table. Do you have that link?
