Buy this one! [Posted on 2008-02-06]
Kreg makes some good products. These work well. They fasten easily to miter slots or T-Track. They have 5" of adjustment. The pack of two comes with an additional pair of longer mounting bolts to allow both featherboards to be stacked for thicker or taller wood. Even have spacers included to space them out from the fence if needed. Look at the rest, then buy these.

These appear to be well made. It should be noted that I think they will do what they are suppose to do, hold the material so it doesn't pop up or out once I figure out how.
I wish they included better pictures or instructions on how you attach to a a table saw top or fence so it holds fast, wont move and secure.
The only thing I see is their use of a "T" bolt that is used with a Kreg router table. I have a newer table saw but there isn't a T slot on top of the fence as they show. How do they do it? I can use a clamp on the fence, but hardly enough room for the clamp and the featherboard.
Then how do you keep the featherboard in the groove on the table top so it holds the wood against the fence?
They get the job done [Posted on 2008-04-14]
I've used these for about a month now on both a table saw and router table. Had zero problems. Easy to adjust. Hold tight in the tracks. I have cut and routered thicknesses of 1/4 inch to 2 inches. Great results epecially on the router table compared with not using featherboards. Good product for the price.
Nice featherboards [Posted on 2008-05-05]
In error, I ordered two of these, not realizing that they came in a two-pack. Thus, when they arrived, there were four featherboards. OK, you can never have too many of these things, so I kept them. That turned out to be a good thing. To change these things from a right-to-left feed into a left-to-right feed, you remove the bolts and washers and put them in from the other side. My router table uses right-to-left, and my table saw uses the equivalent of left-to-right, so I have two of them set up each way. Works great. Not that expensive, and if I had used them my entire woodworking career, I wouldn't have a messed up finger from a board kicking back at me. These are as well made as any I've seen.
wish I'd bought them years ago [Posted on 2008-08-10]
This is a great product and safety device. I borrowed a the Bench Dog version from a friend, but found it didn't fit tightly into my Ridgid TS3650 table saw. This Kreg model fits great and locks down tight. After using them for only a day, I can't vouch for their longterm quality yet, but I can say I found myself thinking back to how many times I've been lucky and not lost parts of my fingers because I was stupid and putting them close to the blad because I didn't have a product like this to hold the wood tight to the fence. My only regret so far is hesitating spend the $40 to buy a product that I thought wouldn't be the helpful. I should have bought them years ago and not relied on luck to keep my fingers attached.
