Has anyone bought and tried to adapt this fence over to a MDF surface? I have seen a few of these for sale for under 30.00 and thought maybe it had some merit to look at.
I have made many out of MDF and they work great, the best fence I have used/made is the swing and pin type with a T & G inserts.
The MDF stock mills well and it's clean and true.
And it's cheap unlike the Aulm.fence type,with just a little work and about $10.oo of stock you can have a great fence and the fence is 50% of the router table.
Since you can build a nice sliding fence that works better for under $30 why go to the trouble? Check out the home built fences on this site and think it over.
