Bow Products GuidePro 6″ Vertical Band Saw Feed Guide
GuidePro for band saws offers new capabilities and safety benefits not previously available. The innovative GuidePro utilizes a flexible 6 In. silicone feather that applies consistent pressure along the vertical edge of the workpiece just before the blade. Ideal for cutting thin strips. Better yet, the flexible feather offers new capabilities for cutting odd shape materials as the feather adjusts to variations in material shape. GuidePro also functions as a dual side and top hold feather when cutting small pieces. The flexible feather is perfect for resaw applications where consistent material control is essential. GuidePro adds simplicity and convenience to cutting long boards as it holds material firm as its fed into the blade while you support and feed the board. GuidePro’s silicone feather is non-marring and acts to dampen vibration for a cleaner cut. GuidePro sets up in mere seconds. Simply rotate the GuidePro miter cam in the miter slot, use the comfortable ergonomic handle to apply desired pressure, and press the lever down. The applied pressure translates to torque on the miter cam which holds the GuidePro in position. Perhaps the hallmark of Bow innovation is safety. GuidePro is positioned between your hands and the blade. As GuidePro holds material firm at the point of cut, your hands are free to feed the wood. As always, finish the cut with the Bow PushPro push stick featuring EVA tips. GuidePro has a detachable base with imperial and metric scales for use as a measuring and squaring tool when setting the fence. GuidePro comes with three miter cams to fit the range of tables: 3/4 In., 5/8 In. and 15 mm miter slots.
