Re: DRO on a shaper fence?

Hi Brett and Bryce,

The play I am talking about is in the hood. As I mentioned, it would not show on the microadjust or on the DRO placed therein but it could affect the cut. I am not concerned about removing and replacing the hood either.

As stated earlier, I push the hood back before securing the hood but since it has this play (video attached) I am not sure if it goes back to the exact same spot every time I secure the hood. Obviously, one has to loosen the hood to make any adjustment to the fence.

Maybe it will irritate me that DRO has not improved the overall situation much. I will still be relying on the test cuts as before. What I really I like to know if this play is normal.

I haven't noticed an issue like you have described Imran. As Brett said, always good to go slightly past, then come back to the measurement you're after. I guess there could be some creep when tightening down the hood, but it should show on the DRO if that was the case, and i haven't yet seen that on mine.
Regards,

Bryce
