Auxiliary Fence
For cutting a groove in the edge of a wider board, you can add a larger auxiliary
fence to better register the plane to the workpiece. Simply make a wooden fence,
as plain or fancy as you wish, and attach it using wood screws through the holes
in the existing fence. Be sure to use screws that are not so long that they break
through the working face of the wooden fence.
