Tricks of the Trade Cam-locking Stop Block a Cinch to Make THE WINNER: This simple jig clamps quickly to my table saw's fence and helps with two common operations. It serves as a gauge block when performing long crosscuts using both my fence and miter gauge. The gauge block prevents the work from getting caught between the fence and blade. It also is a great stop block when making stopped cuts, such as when notching out corners of a panel. The block is 1" thick so it's easy to compensate for its thickness on my saw fence's scale. The dimensions given fit my Jet Xacta fence, but can be adjusted to fit yours. The radii on the cam lever are approximate; sand it until it works smoothly.
