Double Featherboard

A featherboard is undoubtedly the most underrated router-table accessory of all time. When properly installed, its flexible fingers keep the workpiece pressed tightly against the router tabletop or router fence throughout the routing operation. The result is a dramatic increase in the accuracy, quality and safety of the cuts.

This popular router-table accessory consists of not one, but two industrial-quality featherboards. The featherboard are made from a high-tech polymer and each one has 13 angled fingers that apply steady pressure that consistently produces cleaner cuts with less chance of kickback, chattering or lifting.

The featherboard slide into miter-gauge slots in the router table or fence, and are locked in place by tightening a pair of knobs. Note that it can also be used on a table saw, shaper, bandsaw or any other woodworking machine with a miter gauge slot.
