Hold-down rollers for TS

[niki]

Good day

Another safety aid that hold the board pressed to the fence and to the table.

With both the Feather roller and the Hold-down roller, cutting the 1¼" thick Oak is so relaxed, I just have to push and don't have to worry that the board will move from the straight line.

As you will see on the last pic, I made it later with two rollers, one before and one after the blade.

Some of the pictures are not clear because I made them with my left hand while pushing the wood with my right hand, sorry.

Thank you John
It looks to me that you are not visiting many woodworking forums.
I'm posting from Australia, via Italy and UK to USA and down to Brazil...

Thank you "Old Chevy":)
I'm not so much after money and even though Wood Magazine "bought" from me a few ideas, I'm more happy if I can save some money to amateurs like me so they can buy a better (or additional) router, TS and alike, instead of spending on simple jig that they can make.
