TSO Square + Telescoping stop

[tofu]

I want those TSO 20/30 parallel guides, but until then I came up with a solution using parts I already have on hand.

I stuck the Incra telescoping fence to the square in sort of the same fashion the parallel guides would go. It's a heavy sucker, but now I have a rack & pinion stop for easy repeatability without a story stick (although I doubt that level of precision is even necessary for most of my woodworking).

Very clever and EZ solution! (but work on that color combo please)

I have about 6 different anodized colors going on in my collection.  No turning back now

[member=18416]tofu[/member] - you went to quite some trouble to reinvent the wheel. Let us know if you want to put the INCRA fence back on your mitersquare or wherever you appropriated it from.

Life is easier (and much lighter) with a TPG-20-30 Parallel Guide.

have a good week ahead and stay safe!

I appropriated it from my spare parts bucket.

You know, the problem with TSO is that your 1 simple product takes 3 of my bulky old tools and makes them worthless.

What am I supposed to do with all these mustard colored extrusions now? Forget about the eurekazone stuff... I repurposed some of those extrusions to be planter legs.

[member=18416]tofu[/member] - just make more planter legs from the surplussed extrusions after you get your TPG-30 Parallel Guide. You'll never look back.
and thanks for the pictures - pure Yankee resourcefulness [smile]
