Wood auxiliary rip fences come in handy on the table saw. But it’s tough to secure them without the clamps getting in the way of the cut. I solved that problem with the simple fence you see here.
Fence Details
The fence consists of four layers. The two outer layers are cut to the length of your rip fence. The two middle layers are each made up of three parts, with gaps wide enough to accommodate the clamp heads. I left all of the pieces a little wide and then ripped the whole assembly to final width after it was glued together. The design could also be modified for resawing on the band saw by making one outer layer taller.
