The Ultimate Feather Board

I was looking for my feather board when I realised that it was put in the scrap-bin and taken it down to the recycling centre.

I have made a new one and this time I've painted it bright red so hopefully it wan't get dumped.

I used 18mm marine plywood to make the board.

I cut it at 30 degrees and marked at 70 mm for the feather cuts

I made a T square out of a piece of scrap wood as a fence to speed things up and I gapped it by eye ( this operation didn't need to be super accurate )

I drilled 2 holes per side of the board to give me a lead in for routing the adjustable slots .

I made the screw down knobs and I have put a link to my youtube video, the only difference is that the knobs on these that they have the T nuts inserted in the top instead of bolts.

My saw has a two slots in the sides of the mitre channel I modified two 8mm coach bolts to slide along the groove by grinding the dome of and removing 1 mm from the head diameter

I slid the coach bolts into the grooves and screwed the board down and adjusted to make the cut.

I am happy to try and answer any question you may have.
