Excellent unbiased review. Thanks! And yes, those hard foam feathers do ease up with a bit of use. I have the large one like you have, and use it all the time.

Thanks for such a thorough review! Based on your (and a couple other) reviews, I also purchased these same items. Just received mine and strangely enough, the threads on one of the knobs on the Feed Support was jammed up like yours. Fortunately, it seems that the threads just weren't cleaned out all the way so I was able to run a tap through it.

Very nice and thorough review. I will be getting the whole set soon for my sawstop jobsite saw. The limited area on indeed an outfeed was the only complaint I had with my saw. I have a small shop so a bigger saw was not an option. So this setup will be great for me, thanks for your review.

One of the things I see in may of these first time trial reviews is a slight misunderstanding of how the rubber fingers work in Bow's feather boards. When you try to test the holding power by pulling your work-piece back against the feather board, you will notice that the piece can move backward a few millimeters with minimal friction. That is because the laser-cut shape of the fingers allows some movement in both directions at first, but in the reverse direction the fingers lock one against each other, and AFTER they lock, the piece becomes VERY hard to move backward any further. That few millimeters of movement should not put anybody in danger.

I was just looking at their product line and I see there are two styles of those rubber feather boards, the regular black ones are what you bought. Look into getting the replacement rubber inserts that are called ultralight ones and are grey in color. $14.99 for the ultralight ones.

The ultralights don't have the same holding power, and are intended for the "dual" setup, as two black would impose too much friction for moving the work forwards.
