ABSTRACT:
A fence is described for attachment to a cutting table or in combination with a cutting table. The fence includes pair of elongated guide rails with brackets configured to be mounted to the cutting table. An endless chain is provided on each guide rail, trained about sprockets rotatably mounted on the guide rail. Each chain includes a working flight that extends along the associated guide rail. Each chain further includes sprocket tooth receiving spaces. A shaft interconnects, one of the sprockets on one guide rail with one of the sprockets on the remaining guide rail such that rotation of the shaft will result in all the sprockets rotating in unison, causing uniform and equal movement of the chain. An elongated cutting guide is provided with aligning lugs that are releasably received within selected tooth receiving spaces of the chains in such a manner that the cutting guide may be selectively engaged with the chains and lifted from the chains. A locking mechanism is configured to secure the cutting guide in a selected position along the working flights of the chains.
