Hi Jonathan,

Have you try the nut Mikelis mentioned earlyto tighten the mechanism?

Hi Imran, there is a small amount of play in the indexing?pins but more in the adjuster......Im happy to blame the european union for it ?but,?in mainland europe we do use the same side as the US it's just that little island that I lived on for a few years called united kingdom, and there colonies that do funny things with driving.

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for sharing. Just to be clear, are you experiencing play in the adjuster or from the pins indexing in the table holes? As I mentioned earlier, it is the later for me and I push LHS of the fence before tightening the kip levers. Maybe it is opposite in EU since they drive on the wrong side of the road ?

Kory, no experience?with the SCM offering but I can say on my two KF700s there is play on the fine adjuster (0,5mm) until?you tighten the?two kip levers. So when dialing in on the fine adjuster you have to remember to push the RHS of the fence back before tightening the fence to get some sort of repeatability.
For me this was not a acceptable?workaround so made up a quick and dirty dro attached to a board that has a reference?point of the edge of the table, now repeatability is good.

Kory, Joe Calhoun has retrofit position indicators onto some of his shaper components (notably the feeder) to provide repeatability.? I’ve intended to retrofit my Felder 230 shaper fence with a position indicator but have yet to do so.? Perhaps someone could figure out how to do this.

I'm looking at SCM and Felder shapers recently and have come to think that the readouts on the fences may have a big impact on my repeatability. This is pretty important as I change cutter heads very often (1 shaper for my hobby shop).

Newer SCM Machines have a fence with a numerical readout. To me, this seems like it would be dirt easy to get the same fence positioning every time, because you just write down a number.

VS the Felder fences have what looks like a less specific readout:
<inline.1.part>

I'm wondering what your experience has been using the Felder fence. It's not at all clear to me how "repeatable" a fence position is.
?
For background, I'm comparing similarly-specced and the F700Z. The F700Z is considerably cheaper but one of the main items that concerns me is the fence.

Thanks!
