No miter slot hardware!!!
Description says it includes “mounting hardware”, which any normal person would interpret as meaning mounting hardware for either a t-track or a miter slot, which is what you get with other brands, but it actually only includes hardware for t-tracks and has NO expansion bar hardware. So now I have to go make some expansion bars myself instead of being able to use these out of the box. Had I known that I would have bought the Kreg 2-pack which is basically the same price and definitely includes the expansion bars. I went with this one instead because the slots for the bolts extend further to the end of the feathers, which makes for a shorter minimum distance. Oh well. +2 stars for the product itself, since the feather boards are pretty nice and the price is acceptable IF you can use them out of the box, but -3 stars for the horrible description and the need to make my own hardware which makes the price actually pretty bad when you consider the labor involved to make them work.Update: got them up and running with homemade expansion bars and they’re pretty decent. +1 star.

Solid accessory and made in the USA
These are great. I use them on my Dewalt table saw, and they hold really well for rip cuts on longer boards. Made in the USA, which is a bonus.

Rousseau "The way to go"
These may be the most versatile feather boards on the market, and they're like getting 4 for the price of 2 as they are feathered on both ends. If you look at them close, you'll notice that one end offers more pressure than the other. And these do come with the hardware to secure them (and I do mean secure) to your T track or miter slot. I have a Benchdog Featheloc, and although the Benchdog is faster to put in and out of the slot, it's harder to adjust and doesn't stay put as well. The Rousseau is height adjustable and the BD is not. Every shop should have these, they are a good value. Happy woodworking :) Tim

An excellent system
There are lot of details that set these apart from other featherboards I have used. The included hardware is very nice and locks very securely. I like the included spacers, which allow you to create a decent gap between the featherboard and T-track without losing stability. Adjustment is quick and easy once the featherboards are mounted, although getting them into the T-track takes a little fussing because the fit is very snug. They are strong and sturdy, able to maintain pressure even on heavy pieces of plywood.The price seemed a little high when I initially purchased then, but after using them the flexibility and safety more than justify the price.

Perfect design and construction
You need this if you use both sides of your table saw blade, and nearly everyone does.. Easy to set up so that it applies the perfect amount of sideways pressure against the workpiece. Worth the money in function and especially safety. Keep your fingers!

Best of the lot I use!
Versatile use for miter slots as well as T-slots. Very sturdy, easy to use. Fine quality product with great handles, well-thought and designed spacers and the ability to switch from one feed direction to another with little effort. The genius? They come two in a package. Although if you work like me, you will buy at least two sets. Who likes to carry tools from one machine to the next? Not me. I have purchased four different styles of featherboard, made a few and will purchase no other ever again. So far, no other compares.

Added safety.
These are very useful for setting up safe operations on a router table and custom rounter fences. When set correctly they willl stop "kick backs". I have never had one when useing these.
