Need help choosing router table fence
Found this forum just yesterday.. didn't know that it existed and I spend yarns of time on the net!! Anyway, glad to be here.
Am a newbie.. been going for about 3 years and am in the process of building my router table. The top is made of 1 1/4" MDF edged with hardwood. I made my insert out of 3/4" lexan and have purchased an extra base for my Bosch 1617 so that leave it mounted on the insert.
After much debate on another forum, I added a t-track slot at the front to hold a featherboard, etc.
My sticking point is now the fence. I was going to build a great one from one of my mags but really don't have the time as having a 2-year old keeps me busy as it is!! So I have decided to buy one and am looking the Veritas by Lee Valley, the Freud SH-5 and the Benchdog 40-006.
Can I get some guidance on which is best?
Thanks
