About: Autodesk Technology Center San Francisco is a hub for research, development, and demonstration of new manufacturing technologies and workflows relating to configurable microfactories.

The fence has two halves that are adjustable for width. Adjust the gap between the bit and each section of fence to about 1/2".

Step 1: Using the Fence

  1. Loosen the black lock knobs.
  2. Slide the fence sides into position.
  3. Snug the lock knobs.

Step 2:

Adjusting how far the bit sticks out past the fence will determine how deep into the workpiece the bit cuts.

Taking several small cuts ensures safety and accuracy.

  • Never take greater than 1/8" depth of cut.

Never place the workpiece between the bit and fence.

This can cause the bit to grab the work and throw it across the shop.
