Today I had some ash swell around a 3/8" mortise chisel/bit and bind the chisel to the point I had to apply leverage to raise the drill. I made the mistake of using the post on the fence and the force broke the cast iron rod (about 13/16" diameter) used to set the fence location. The rod is an integral part of the fence and now the fence part is no longer stocked. I was wondering if anyone knew of a fence that might be available. Otherwise, it looks like I will need to be making a clamp fence and hold down. I am going to check into having the broken rod brazed, but that may not be the best option. So far, I have make a fixture and drilled a 1/8" hole in the broken face of both parts and have good alignment. It looks like a rod up to about 3/8" diameter could be inserted in 2 pieces before brazing. Comments?
