Description: |
| A threaded screw engages with a movable rack to which the fence is fastened. The fence can be quickly adjusted by disengaging the rack and re-engaging the screw thread, which forces the adjustment to be an integer multiple of the thread pitch. A fine adjustment knob rotates the screw, which moves the rack and fence. This type of mechanism has since become popular for box joints jigs, such as the Incra I-Box jig. |
