Diy Miter Gauge Fence

Length for both pieces should be around 30 inches.

Diy miter gauge fence.

Join the strips of wood together using some glue and 2 inch brad nails. Build a wear proof miter gauge fence. If you use an auxiliary miter gauge fence for mitering beveling and dadoing you eventually wind up with big chunks missing. You must use a drafting square for easy and precise marking.

Build this adjustable fence and you ll never cut the face regardless of the blade or the angle of the cut. I used 3 4 baltic birch plywood for that for stability and strength. Cut another piece 4 inches wide for the fence itself. The original fence was in two pieces and that made it tricky to line up precisely.

Then you can now mount the extension fence to your miter gauge. Most auxiliary fences that bolt to a miter gauge eventually start to look pretty ragged. Cut a piece of plywood or mdf 7 inches wide to use as the base for your fence. The stock fence was perfectly straight and square to the blade so i wanted to preserve that.
