My Custom Built Guide Rail Deflector

I too really like the design and have also been frustrated with the Festool product.  As I was looking at the images, especially 5.jpg, it struck me that you could take advantage of the rail hanging hole to secure it even better than the clip on the right side does now just by drilling another countersunk hole.  It wouldn't just slide on and off like yours does now but I find I don't need to do that often myself YMMV.  But it is wonderful as it is and I for one am going to copy it first chance I get.

Thanks for sharing.

I have a question about image 5 as well. What type of clip did you use on the right side (from below) of the guide and what type of screw (I guess that depends on the clip).

Thank you.
