Andrew,
It might be hard to find anybody that has much experience with both fences. All I dan make reference to the Incra TS LS system and can say that it does that it is advertised to do. I love it. I cannot say that I have used in the application that you are talking about and so probably am not as much help as I would to be. All I can tell you is that I can't imagine you ever being disappointed in the Incra set up. Let's see what some of the other members have to say about the issue.

While I don't have experience with the woodpecker fence, I do own the Incra fence. I had the Incra fence on my table saw, so added the wing on the saw and bought the super fence system. Changing over from router to table operations isn't bad, but it is one thing you do have to keep in mind when you are working. Sounds like you are using a dedicated table in which case, this isn't an issue. While I haven't spent any time doing the dovetails, the box joints on it are a godsend.

I love the fact that you can make repeatable cuts and if you want to join wood, there are micro adjustments for the split fence to do just that. I also like the high fence adapter that's included... overall I can't say enough good things about the Incra fence.

 

Wayne,
I assure you that the dovetails are as easy and nice as the box joints, if you haven't tried them yet you are in for a pleasant discovery. I expecially like the corner post concept using dark wood for the corner posts and light colored wood for the main box.

Another issue that I really like on TS set up the ability to sneak up on cut a few thousands at a time until the fit is perfect. While you can set the fence very accurately it is not so easy to measure what is required for the cut by using a tape measure. Cutting only to what you can read on a tape measure is very rough compared to the capability of the LS system.

Like you, I can not say enouth about the Incra system.

Greeting Andrew, I see you are a new member would like to welcome you to the forum

I also am a incra fan,own a ls25 system.As stated above,the offset capabitities of the wonderfence is handy as well as the fine adjustment features and the fact the dovetails and boxjoints are a breeze without aditional jigs.Anouter plus is the wonder fence has excellent throught the fence dust collection when working close to the fence.

 

Welcome to the forum, Andrew.

What table are you going to use with the Triton?

I liked the micro-adjuster on the Triton table and fence.

 

Hi James"

I was planning to buy a Prorouter table, add a Woodpeckers or Incra insert and make my own stand.

Is above the table adjustment on the TRI001 as good as everyone makes it out to be?

I'm also considering the Jessem mitre slide. Just need to decide between the jointing focus of the Incra or the more freewheeling Woodpeckers (maybe with a Leigh jig for joints).

Decisions, decisions.

Thanks all.

 

Welcome to the forum Andrew.

 

Thanks, Ross.

Been an invaluable resource for a noob like me.

 

I own the woodpecker phenolic top, mounted on their steel moveable stand. It has the super fence but not the micro-fine adjuster. I do see it in the future though! Quality has been excellent and I have been pleased with it. I also use the wixey vertical height gauge. Someday I hope to get around to replacing the steel stand with a proper wooden cabinet for ease of storage of bits,feather boards, and such. I also added a large safety switch to the frame of the stand. I know the Incra is a great setup as well. Hard to go wrong with either choice IMO.
