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.
