Dear Russ, congratulations on building what has to be the safest fence system for a spindle moulder that I have ever seen. Watching you work is like a metal machinist at work but with wood. I continue to be impressed by everything that you do. Cheers.
Most excellent ! Wish I could afford the time to build one for our wood shaper, it's my favorite tool in the shop.
that was a bit of work but that's easily the coolest and most functional shaper (as we call it in Canada) fence I've ever seen. Kudos.
Now this woodworking I can respect.
CZcams has too many American woodworking 'experts' who pose in front of shelves full of moulding hand planes they've bought on eBay while touting some gimmicky piece of useless kit (they mostly talk, seldom build anything - they have such nice hands & no glue on their pants :-), so it's nice to come across someone who wears out his machines.

typical european, complains about what people thousands of miles away in america are doing while doing nothing them selves. where is your channel doing this fine craftsmanship you describe? where are the rest of the norwegian and european wood working channels? at least those american channels are putting themselves and their content out there for you to judge. yes, that means they are doing while you are talking about doing. what does anything in this video have to do with american wood workers?
That was so very exacting. I didn’t realise until the end that a ‘gate’ was part of the machine. Very clever to have made a replacement. That’s skill. Thank-you for showing this engrossing video. I enjoyed it and I’m an old lady.
In an age, where we're plagued with an abundance of people posting videos, of varying degrees of quality, doing nothing but river tables, it's great to see some really innovative and highly skilled craftsmanship. It wouldn't surprise me if there is an Albanian goat with a channel doing poxy epoxy tables.
It is really refreshing and highly addictive watching your stuff come together mate. Simply incredible.
I studied furniture manufacturing at University and believe you me, this is ingenious
Such a beautiful design to add to a router table.I think it’s why I dig your channel so much.Your creative mind is so different from the rest.Thanks for the free plans and thanks for sharing. I’ll be making this for my table
Really impressed to see you make one of these from wood! The company I work for only got its first spindle moulder a few months ago and, during a training session, we were told about the fences you can buy (but made from aluminium). Again, I think it's just great to see that it can be done and does work. No more breaking through and binning bits of ply and MDF! ;-)
10 points for having the patience and attention to detail to get that done so perfectly.
You are the precise definition of "working smarter not harder".
Zero ability to even begin to believe I could do anything like that, so much respect! 💪🏼
That's the work of someone who really cares about their tools. Great Job!
I tought it was overkill before watching the video, now I'm searching straight grain hardwood in my lumber collection :) Well done build!
I just have to say I really like your video style...no shitty music or excessive talking. Just a few words on the screen and you building whatever it is you're making. I like the simplicity of it and hopefully you don't change that. Also the craftsmanship is top shelf too
Hell that was hard work! Us lads in lancs just cut a 48x6 inch 9mm piece of MDF screw to existing fence and keep tapping onto cutter, 2 mins done
Yes
I have never see a fence like it. Looks great! Back when I was a joiner I used to screw a sacrificial bit of mdf to the existing fence and push it back over the cutter for a zero clearance fence.
Holy Moly
Never seen that machine type before, but absolutely loved your solution to the fence replacement. Thanks so much for sharing!
i love the way of how your respect the wood, and how precision and patience of work is so pleasant to watch, thank you.
7mins and
You blow my mind buddy! Creative, Productive, Effective
I dont use this kind of machine and did not understand your goal until you put it all together and my brain froze : this looks so nice and so smart and so usefull
I watch all sorts of stuff but as a Yorkshireman had to watch this and wow. I am no Joiner I don't even know what he hs made but the last time I saw that detail using a micrometer they were working with steel in an engineers shop nobody uses this degree of accuracy in timber. Will look for other projects
An outstanding improvement to the shaper. I think I am going to copy it to the "nth" degree. Wow! He's "Absolutely Brilliant!". One could search the world over; and only fine VERY few that works like this. May Jesus continue to "gift" him with innate talents from Heaven; that he kindly shares with us.
Well worth the time and effort put in to making this. The same fence, but in aluminium, for my Felder moulder costs just under £1,400
wow! every router fence should be like this! so much safer and precise
I was well into this video before I understood how this was going to work. Superb design and construction. I recently replaced the fence on my compound cross cut saw, but that was a piece of MDF screwed in place!
The effort that you go to in pursuit of perfect finishes is truly inspiring. Great work and really neat ideas…. Massive improvement on the manufacturer… 👍😃
Amazing to watch a professional at work 👍👍
I really like this aigner fence clone! I would probably have made the fingers in aluminium for a bit better stability but your wooden ones is probably just fine as is. Thanks for sharing!
Wow. That's a 50+ year fence. Good job. Get the patent. Congrats. Really nice safety feature.
Yes, what John says -"detail oriented" - in spades. I'm envious of you shop and the quality of your tools. Really something to be proud of.
I was just having a gander through the comments and gathered that this fence is based upon one available for sale,a quick look tells me that it's also ridiculously expensive,aside from that point and as someone who has made plenty of 'special' tools over the years,sometimes because of the cost of off the shelf stuff there is a certain satisfaction from using your own creation to help create or repair something else,especially when it works😄😄.very nicely executed too and far better to look at than a chunk of overpriced ally. I do a bit of hobby woodwork,if I had made that,that nice,I'd look at it and think ,No bo***cks that's going up on the wall!
On a whim I looked up 'detail oriented' in the dictionary and I saw your picture....no surprise there!
Great work as always, friend. Thanks for sharing!
Wow, just WOW! You are an incredible Carpenter!
I’d happily have that in my living room
After about 18 - 19 minutes of watching this beautiful video, it becomes clear what is made and why it's so clever! You might enchant more viewers by stating this at the beginning?
its a good point, lots of people have been lost on its use even after watching the entire thing! maybe i should have made its benefits more clear
Very well done. I probably would have sent the aluminum work out to a machine shop and had it done on a CNC machine. But I have worked in machine shops and have lots of friends there. That's just a personal choice. Especially all those CS screw holes just get done so quickly by the CNC.
All that said you get all 5 stars for your work.
Well conceived. Expertly executed. Doesn't get much better.
Wonderful! I really liked your idea. I build furniture in Italy and I am always very curious to discover new solutions different from mine.
What a great project and beautifully executed! Great to see that wood can be worked with such presicion. But one thing though - I would put in a locking feature for the fingers. Maybe another brass rod that would lock the fingers in place on the other side of the spindle. I had a colleague once, who was badly hurt on the same type of machine with a fence much like yours, but made out of aluminium with sliding fingers. She forgot to check the lock after a break and one of the fingers got loose and... Yeah, it was bad..
я тоже подумал о том чтобы добавить блокировку пальцев с противоположной стороны)
@@mazyka10fingers comment above (google) translates to
I also thought about adding a finger lock on the opposite side

This is now on eBay ! How strange I went to search for a 301 after watching this and there is this exact setup for sale. Very nice.
he did mention he was thinking of selling it, looks like he put a cheaper cartridge on but that is a bargain price!
I think it's essential this add-on .. how there is no similar thing delivered with the machine
excellent work
Hope your partner keeps you refreshed with Yorkshire Tea with all the hard work you do, assuming they're not working as hard as you of course?
Amazing. Absolutely amazing! Great design and love seeing this fence in action!!
Thats an awesome idea. Thanks mate.
Hello
I got to your channel by chance, I have watched 7 videos so far. Just wanted to tell you, you make super cool videos ....... you make it so comfortably nice to watch you. I like everything well, no matter whether you are Record player or build stairs ..... I love your old tools in your workshop. I left you a subscription.
greetings from Germany
He's a genius when it comes to woodworking. Wow!
Love how this isn't mucked up with talking.
award winning cineblurrtography... hahahahah. Awesome stuff. wish I had the space for such a shop
Excellently executed. Well done and on my to do list. The aigners are nice but pricey but yours should do very nicely. Thanks
wow that's an excellent idea and beautifully executed.
extra fingers are handy in woodworking.
Nice to look at but impractical, and above all very laborious to obtain, once a single sheet of beech plywood has been leveled and calibrated for the various cutters that are used, you have all the support you want and it takes a few minutes to build it.
I have the Aigner with aluminum fingers and every time I fit tooling I can custom put cross fingers anywhere at a moment's notice and if I have to I can move the whole fence up and down in 1 second. If you are charging $85 per hour for shaper work and time is short there is no other approach except swing fingers. I never have to ask myself, "where did I put the plate that goes with this shaper tooling?" V Rolfe Chicago The shaper has three spindles, CNC on the fences, tilt servo and numeric setting memory. Setup timing for 8 different jobs in one day is duck soup and your mind is free to think about other tasks coming up. The swing fingers also allow one to look between the finger to check the cut on the run; solid wood plates block the view and create friction that can fool you in certain circumstances. If you have a series of parts to mill and each has a different tooling height and you want to maintain a safe and accurate fence setting; Aigner is the answer. I worked in a shop that had an old SCMi 110 and they were always breaking a setup to change tooling.
I am impressed! Nice fence.
What a precision! Brilliant!
what a tedious work! respect!
Very professional and and patience job...
Thanks a lot
I watched this about a week ago, and decided to leave a comment. This is an amazing build! Fantastic craftsmanship, detail and design. You're a truly skilled and talented artist.
Thank you very much!
That is a truly brilliant idea and an excellent job
wieder mal ein Super Video
Nice work
Beautifully done.
Always thought there was a better way than a sacrificial fence.
Love your style mate.
Yea ! nice work. Patient & meticulous dedication. Keeping superskill alive. *****
Beautiful work.
Thats very clever and skillfully made
Patience of a saint!
you can make the fingers easily pop out by making a slider between the wood and the metal plate, and accessible from front just slide to the left and it pops out etc
Genius! Neat and accurate! A piece of art.
I absolutely LOVE your videos! You are funny as well as an absolute Pro! XXX
Bon travail ! Tres bein !
This is a great idea! Love it. Nicely done too.
This is one of the best ideas I've ever seen, congratulations 👍
Although the work is of exceptional quality making this fence i have to stress the point that wood chippings are highly abrasive when hitting fences and these fences would soon be damaged.
Aluminum is a lot more used for this reason as there is little wear and only a build up of resin appears
Top Job!
Mesure de securite formidable
Chapeaux metre
Tarn, eh? Or is tha Rothrum?
Lol... Very good stuff mate. Talented af tha is. Nice one tha shud mek sum muni doin that pal... Lad got skills
Laugh out loud
👍
To get 10/10 from me it would've needed an excentric shaft (like a camshaft of some sort) on the right hand side. when you twist it all the fingers are flipped out. when i was an carpentry apprentice here in germany the fences were all like yours (but from aluminium) and had these forementioned twist thingies so you dont have to finger every finger 😉
awesome work! Meticulous attention to detail. Thanks for the video.
That machine is AMAZING!!!! So much safer then a dado stack on a table saw..... which I never want to use, even if we could buy them in the UK!! Your fence makes that machine even safer and I'm wondering why they couldn't have that fence straight from the factory? 🤔 👍
Impressive woodwork fit for a Space Shutle
Very well done!
Ingenious! Thanks for posting.
you had to think about it, it's precise bravo!
Super nice.
Jesus christ..woww!!!🤣 As soon as I saw this fence in a different video I knew I had to get to the bottom of this..
Lots of elegant solutions there. Thank you.
All good viewing but I would have just bought a new aluminium assembly. The also have rebate supports etc which this one does not.
That is by far the nicest wooden or otherwise aigner clone I've seen.
Finest wood engineering like all your content, apologies but I am going to copy your design
Merveilleux
Excellent ....... just wow !!!!!!!
shavings off spindle are going to build up in all those gaps, i hate those style fences they dont support work behind cut which can cause break out especially on stopped rebates. Give me a solid fence any day of the week. you did a neat job though so 👍 for that
Ja aber hallo ein Meister seines Faches am Werk, sehr schön an zu schauen Daumen hoch!
Vielen Dank
Thank you, it's great idea for my old spindle moulder, Im sure that my fingers will appreciate
You are a genius
excellent video, really like the magnetic feather board too.
it is bolted on but thanks. id like some magnetic ones but i think they need pretty big magnets to have a good grab
Not so much of a fence more of a gate. 👍👍👍👍
Nice Build dude!
very cool
Très intéressant et ingénieux ! Merci pour le partage, à bientôt, Damien.
This is extremely well made, thank-you. I would like to make one for my spindle moulder. Is it possible to obtain free plans for it? Regards Mark
