Tools and Hardware Reviews of All in One Clamp SB Stop Block w/ Micro Adjustment
Customer Review: Works fine, is convenient, slightly overpriced
Summary: 4 Stars
I was a little shocked to see M. Lindley's scathing review. My experience with this Emerson guide and the stop block has been more than satisfactory. Contrary to his opinion, I found that the block engages firmly and the micro-adjust screw holds very well by friction alone. For heavy duty routing, you could always add a locking nut for more security, but so far, I have not needed to do that.
At first I was put-off by the price, but justified it because I needed an extra item to get free shipping. I'm glad I did! Although I'm not usually a fan of plastic gadgets, this one works well. I've made similar devices for miter / crosscuts with plywood and drywall screws, but I figured this was already designed to fit the router base-plate I was ordering. This saved me hunting for scrap-wood, hardware and saved a few minutes of work.
I already had good experience with the Emerson guides. So, after I added this to my order, the reduced shipping cost made it practically pay for itself. The first time I used it, it paid for itself again.
This thing fits the Emerson guide-rails perfectly ( I have two) and its lightweight. I sometimes have to build custom speaker cabinets on-site for home entertainment systems or built-in bookcases and equipment racks. Having an accurate but portable router guide is very handy! This system makes routing stopped dados and mortises a breeze.
You can adjust the plastic "micro-adjust" screw by hand and it stays put. Just make sure it is screwed deep enough into the block. If the plastic screw is extended out too far, it could wobble. Perhaps that is why M. Lindley got the impression it wasn't stable. Of course, I do not put much lateral pressure on the stop when I get to the end of the cut. For deeper mortises or dados, I take three or more passes of succeeding depth. The router glides up to the stop and positively stops without any drama.
If you are planning to get the router base to match the Emerson guides, you can give this a shot on the same order. You can plan your purchases so free shipping pays for the gizmo.
IF you don't like it, Amazon has a solid return / refund policy.
I'm keeping mine.
