Final Adjustments
Set the wood sub-fence so that it contacts the sole of the plane. This part is sacrifi cial;
it should always be set so that it fully supports the workpiece in order to minimize
tear-out.
Care and Maintenance
The adjustments detailed above will need to be repeated periodically in order to
maintain accurate results.
As noted above, the sub-fence is sacrifi cial and will eventually need to be replaced. It
can be made from quality 1 × 2 material, preferably a softwood such as pine. The

diameter countersinks should be such that the heads of the mounting screws are fl ush
or recessed from the face of the sub-fence.
The detents are pre-set for miters to make multi-sided parts. Select the pre-set miter
angle detent that relates to the number of sides on the structure you are making:
