JessEm 04215 Clear-Cut Precision Stock Guides with Dual Roller Hold-Down System for Router Table Fences

Eliminates chatter marks on the router table. Can’t believe I waited this long to buy them

I'm fairly new to router work, and can't help but think that I might have lost at least one fingertip if it weren't for receiving these little helpers.The price kept this on my wish list for a year or more, and although I sort of wish I'd held out for the Jessem Clear-Cut TS Stock Guides (they weren't available for shipping to NZ) I am pretty happy with these. They're solidly made, and do a great job holding my timber down close to the bit on my router table.

I have A Incra system on both my table saw and my shaper, due to the lower profile on the Incra fences I couldn't use my various feather boards I own, and had to make my own which worked but I saw these and thought why not give it a try , and I could return them if they didn't work. Well they are an awesome addition to my. incra fences, infact I no longer use feather boards to push the stock into the fence as the offset rollers pull the stock into the fence with a nice bit of force. I had to run a 12' board through my shaper, and I always set up extension tables for this type of work as support. I have 2 sets of these Jessems, due to an order error, (not amazons issue- another mail order place took my order, lost it, and then shipped them to me after canceling my order) so I set up a pair on both sides of the fence - locked everything down and ran the board through with NO problem, it stayed tight against the fence. They are quick to adjust. Two cons, they aren't for stock over an 11/4" on my Incra fences and do not use the Allen wrench they supply to tighten it on your fence, I ended up causing a slight mushrooming on one my fences that I ended up machining out. 5 stars as they work as they are advertised!

Wish they were spring loaded like the table saw units. And variation in stock thickness and you either cannot feed the material or it slips right through.

Love how these just work. Just finished up a whole set of doors for a kitchen, and the confidence you get after a few cuts knowing that you don't have to babysit the stock to the fence is amazing, allowing for proper bottom and face referencing. I think the only gotcha is that on narrower stock for long cuts, you'll need a outer push stick to feed through the rollers. For the thicker ones, no problem to go without at all. For the ends of the stock, make sure to set them up with minimal gap between bit and guide rollers, as you'll not want a huge interrupted gap if any.

JESSEM Clear-Cut Precision Stock Guides are easy to install, work great, and hold the work piece firmly against the fence and the table. In my opinion, the stock guides work at least as good, if not better, than feather boards. The only down side, that I can see, are the urethane one-way rollers which wear out in some period of time depending on usage. They can be replaced and they don't have to be ordered from Jessem. I've see Jessem urethane one-way rollers available from other sources on the internet.

I have this device for mytable saw and love it. I tought it might be a good iedea to do the same on my router table. Unlike the table saw version, there is no adjustment to extend the rollers for wider stock and it is not spring loaded. Set up is a breeze and works realy well. I've never had an issue with kick-bck on the router but why take chances!

These do exactly what they say they do, hold your board down and against the fence and help prevent kickback, they work just like the table saw versions, same quality, can't ask for more. I have the kreg router table and as other reviewers have stated, once you tighten the knobs on the guides you can't slide your fence wings to adjust for router bit size. I added a nylon washer to each bolt and problem fixed. I used four of these Hard-to-Find Fastener 014973168735 Washers, 1/4 x 1/2
