Planer thicknesser - planer fence (part 5)

Now for the final part of this build, screw on the actual front timber piece for this sliding fence.

To reiterate the whole purpose of this sliding fence is to even blade wear (when edge planning) across the full width of the table - as shown here. Measured, cut and screwed on the last piece of timber - the actual fence.

ALERT - ALDI Workzone 4Ah batteries.

Bought one reduced from $40 to $30 a week ago for the Workzone cordless mitre saw (which needs 4ah not 2ah) so I don't have to keep nicking one of the 4ah batteries from the two cordless drills. Only went to use the mitre saw two days ago and the fully charged battery cuts out !!! Checked the saw with both the other batteries - working fine. Gave the new battery another check and saw starts and then stops. OK…exchanged that for another one yesterday and the same thing - cuts out. Back to get a refund for that battery.

I suspect a batch problem so returned for refund and will wait for next time around.
