Magnetic Stop Block

Everyone needs a stop block that is independent from your table saw fence. I made one out of a speaker magnet.
I needed one because I made a wedgie sled for segmented turning, and I had precision wedges made by Dave Gatton at Gatton CNC. Links to this awesome guy are below. Check him out.

Yup. I need one of those. Thanks for the mention Rob. Hope you're enjoying the wedge templates.

Great Idea,
Looking forward to seeing the video on the wedge sled.

Nice! Think about adding some Dycem (thin non-slip material)to the bottom. That will really reduce the likelihood of slippage and help protect the cast iron surface.

I like that. I looked around my shop for something that would work for that purpose, but couldn't find anything. I'll check it out.

Nice idea. I use a sawstop, but I see other uses for this. Thanks.

You could always use your fence to square it up :)

Did you make a sled for each angle. Great idea on the stop block.

Nice idea, it's raining here now, too cold though, I hate working in the cold... for another day perhaps....

Hey, great idea, and I just happen to have a magnet exactly the same size .

[@SouthernGinger]

Nice job and great idea!
