Has anyone ever used this product? It looks like it would make a nice addition to the router table.

Not that exact one, but yes they are great. should work well on dp table too. if you like to tork down clamps, you might consider some epoxy in the slot to take some of the load of the screws

I just did, it was on sale (I think it still is) for like $14.99… I used it to make a Drill-Press table. It’s your typical T-track with an additional set of t-bolts and handles, when you ad those up it’s a very good deal. If you plan on building your own jigs/tables/etc the extra handles will come in handy. 4’ will probably be good for 1 table OR 1 fence, so if you plan on building an entire setup (table+fence+jigs) you might need more then 1 of those sets – depending on the size of the table you’re making.

Mind you – this is a T-track, not a Miter-slot

Along with the horizontal mortising table I’ll be getting these items from the Rockwell Site this week. I plan on using them for the router,bandsaw and drill press. I am really getting excited about getting to some projects. It is getting hard to not just jump into them. I’ll be cutting my featherboards today.

I have. Used it to create a router fence. Initially I used two lengths to control placement of the fence. Later I built a new fence using the track to hold a shield. It could be used for featherboards or othe jigs as well though. I bought another one just to have on hand for the next time.

Yep, I picked up that kit on sale a few weeks back. I just installed some on my drill press since I made a mdf table for it this weekend. I am not a huge fan of the intersection kits, it is a lot of money for something you can come close to duplicating with a bit of time and a hacksaw.

Yes, I have purchased a couple of these kits. I have used many of the parts with great success. At that price it’s well worth getting on or two just to have around for future jigs that you might dream up at the spur of the moment.

Yea I figure at these prices an extra kit would be nice to have around. And the shipping was only like 11.69. I could go broke there with the deals they have at the Rockler Website. I like the Thin Rip Tablesaw Jig that I saw in another post this morning.
