Never heard of it, but at nearly $700, it's a top of the line fence!

There are a couple users over on segmentedturner that like it. I would consider one but the price is a killer.

I have been considering making something like that for years. I hadn't seen that one, thanks for bringing that to my attention. Wonder what blade he is using? Not sure about the idea of advancing the piece after each cut. Hmmm? OTOH, it sure looked easier than the times I cut veneer on my saw.

Doesn't look like it would be that hard to make.

The fine adjustment mechanism would be rough

There looks to be a bronze nut in the fine adjustment. It would be for a smooth fit on the outside diameter, and limited backlash in the threads. Not difficult with the proper machinery, but I would not call it easy work.

The Aluminum track is hard to fine over 36" in length.
