Will RIP-FLIP Fit Your Old Table Saw & Fence? | Deep Dive | Woodpeckers Woodworking Tools

RIP-FLIP FENCE STOP SYSTEM: https://www.woodpeck.com/sawing/rip-flip-fence-stop-system.html

Woodpeckers Rip-Flip has been added to thousands of SawStop table saws since it launched a little over a year ago. Now we’ve released a new version that fits Biesemeyer fences and most copies of the Biesemeyer design. In this 13-minute video Jeff Farris takes you into a friend’s shop and shows how the new Rip-Flip installs and what adapters you may need for different fence variations.

Repeatable accuracy for your Biesemeyer, Powermatic and SawStop table saw rip fences! Nothing makes work in the shop go smoother than a device that delivers repeatably accurate results. For years, miter gauges, router tables and drill presses have had flip stops that give you repeatability when you need it, get out of the way when you don’t and are always ready to come back to work on a second’s notice. Woodpeckers Rip-Flip Fence Stop System takes the precision and convenience of the flip stop somewhere it’s never been before… your table saw rip fence. Whether you have a specific dimension that you use day in and day out (rail and stile stock width, for example) or need to save a critical dimension during just one project, the Rip-Flip will return your rip fence to the exact same position time and time again. For one week only, we have these systems marked down.

    i have a Craftsman saw with the Exact-Cut fence. It has a round tube. Will this adapt to it?

    dimana saya harus membelinya



  4. Doug Manter on October 30, 2022 at 4:03 am

    Jeff, I didn’t understand this at all. I think I need you to come install one on my Sawstop pcs. 😜

    Great vid. But In the video, if the stop is just above the hand wheel to adjust the blade, I’ll smash my hand and get blood everywhere. Ouch.

    you guys really need to design the stops to go into incra fence rails as well.. I was just looking at my saw with incra rails and system, and I could modify the front of the fence with drop downs that will touch the stops.. The only problem is the track in front fits 3/8 bolt not 1/4. If you made the stop with a 5/16 tightening bolt and used the 5/8x 5/16 t track nut you sell, then you have another system that can be sold as well. Hint, Hint really easy to look into!!!

    Will this work with a grizzly shopfox t fence?

    Seems like something that’s very useful when needed but rarely needed. To me, it’s not worth the purchase.

    Brilliant engineering to accommodate such a wide variety of machine fence applications. Excellent compendious instructional video.



  10. Patrick Archuleta on October 30, 2022 at 4:10 am

    The best video you have made this will make a lot of sales.

    It is amazing how well thought out many Woodpeckers tools are. The accessory kit allowing the use of so many fence variations demonstrates how a smaller manufacturing operation can beat the competition in adaptability and innovation. Woodpeckers at its core is about versatility in manufacturing, so they can iterate a product quickly and ramp up small batch production. Although not everything they make is perfect, they have the ability to respond with new designs quickly. As long as Woodpeckers also commits to the green energy economy, I will continue to be a loyal customer. Nowadays, I put my money where my mouth is: I look at the carbon footprint and act accordingly.

    Ordered the Rip-Flip Stop system designed for the SawStop saws and it fit well on my Grizzly G0651 cabinet saw. I only had to replace the rail bolts on the saw with longer versions (M8 x 1.25, 1 inch long) to accommodate the extra thickness added by the Woodpecker brackets. The system works great!



  13. Robert Crowley on October 30, 2022 at 4:23 am

    Can it work on a grizzly saw with a shop fox classic fence?



  14. LA F on October 30, 2022 at 4:24 am

    Hey Jeff, great video. Will this work on a Mid 90’s Unisaw with a Unifence?



  15. Bill on October 30, 2022 at 4:24 am

    Thanks for the video, actually motivated me to attach my flip stop to my saw.



  16. Brian Sack on October 30, 2022 at 4:27 am

    I have an Industrial cabinet model SawStop saw with the optional T-glide fence and have added a Wixey digital fence position indicator. The Wixey is very useful as it provides an extremely accurate indication of where the fence is. However, it doesn’t have the dead-stop feature of the Rip-Flip. Now that Woodpeckers has expanded your Rip-Flip for other fences, is there a way to install the Rip-Flip and keep my Wixey, even if I have to relocate the Wixey a bit lower and change the fence-to-Wixey connector? I’d attached a photo but there doesn’t seem to be any way to do so in a comment.

    Will it fit subcontractors table saw thanks again. May God continue to Bless you all.👍🙏

    VERY GOOD VIDEO ON EXPLAINING THIS. HE DOES A GREAT JOB ON HIS VIDEO’ THANK YOU

    Love my flip stop. When I need a cabinet to be exterior dimensions of 35” and want to cut a bottom to fit between the sides, the flip stop rocks. Since 3/4 ply isn’t 3/4, I set my fence to 35”. Then using two scraps of ply, I set the flip stop at 35” less the two scraps. Then I cut the bottom to fit – a perfect fit every time.



  20. Maine Woods on October 30, 2022 at 4:35 am

    I am grateful you didn’t leave us Old Timers with Unisaws . Thank You 🙏🏻



  21. Robert Gudger on October 30, 2022 at 4:38 am

    I would love a version of this to fit my 1990 unisaw with the "unifence"



  22. exhobie on October 30, 2022 at 4:43 am

    I have an Accurate technology digital scale on my 34-450 unisaw with 52” beismeyer fence. I can be precise to 1/64” repeatedly. I don’t see the need for both systems on my fence. Am I missing something. I use this digital system both in my home shop and the small two man non CNC shop where I work building custom cabinetry and furniture. I applaud woodpeckers for their continued drive to help wood workers. I am not knocking this system. I am just questioning the need for it in conjunction with my current digital scale. I am all ears.

    I have a Vega Fence, which uses a 2" diameter chromed steel tube for the front fence rail. Will this fit to my Vega fence? What else do I need to make it work?



  24. John Pillans on October 30, 2022 at 4:47 am

    Curious the size of you workshop. Thanks!



  25. William Smith on October 30, 2022 at 4:49 am

    I don’t have a real table saw but, if I did…



  26. Patrick Archuleta on October 30, 2022 at 4:49 am

    Does it work with a smaller table saw.



  27. Jay Linser on October 30, 2022 at 4:53 am

    I have an older Biesemeyer fence with a 42" rip capacity but the width of the fence to the right of the switch is about 54".
    Would I need a 50" kit?
    Or does the 30" have enough track?
    I just received my Exact-90 miter gauge a couple hours ago, What a solid tool! Can’t wait to try it!
