    One issue I have with the Incra (or any Incra fence with the the 32nd adjustment), it isn't infinitely adjustable. And with that, the stop has to be lifted away from the 32nd teething to be moved,...

    It appears from the only picture that actually shows this on the Jessem site, that the fence stop uses a black tab (not a fine red line like on table saw fences, or even an Incra TS-LS that uses a...
