Adding Auxiliary Fence Faces 
Auxiliary fence faces can be added to the Kapex fence. One of 
the primary benefits of adding fence faces is to create a zero-
clearance fence opening for cutting smaller workpieces. The 
term, “zero-clearance” means that there is no gap between the 
sawblade and the fence. This is achieved by cutting the auxiliary 
fence to final length after it is installed.

Making the Auxiliary Fences 
The auxiliary fences can be made from solid wood, composite 
wood (such as particle board), or soft (non-brittle) plastic.  
 
1. 
Cut your fence blanks to basic size. They can be wider or 
narrower; taller or shorter than the actual fence. Size them 
to best suit your needs. 
2. 
Drill and countersink two 11/64” holes for #10 mounting 
screws. 
3. 
If desired, trace the shape of the factory fence onto the 
auxiliary fence, and then cut the auxiliary fence with a band 
saw or coping saw. 
4. 
To permit the fence to slide left or right, it is necessary to 
have a space between the auxiliary fence and the fixed 
portion of the factory fence. Use one of the options listed. 
► 
Option 1: Place a washer on the back of each 
mounting screw. 
► 
Option 2: Using a tablesaw or chisel, back-cut the 
lower rear of the fence to clear the fixed portion of 
the factory fence. 
 
5. 
After mounting the auxiliary fence faces to the 
saw, use the saw to trim the ends for a zero-
clearance fit. Trim one side at a time. 
 
Making a Zero-Clearance Insert 
A zero-clearance insert is helpful when cutting small pieces 
to prevent the offcuts from falling under the standard pair 
of inserts. The insert can be made from any hard wood. 
For best results, the insert should be custom fit to your 
saw, so use the dimensions shown below as a starting 
guideline. Adjust the thickness to be flush with the saw’s 
table. To make the countersunk holes for the mounting 
screws, first use a small forstner bit to drill the 
countersunk holes, and then a regular drill bit to drill a 
through-hole for the screw’s shank. After the insert is 
installed and screwed down to the saw’s table, cut the kerf 
opening with the saw using a standard push-cut.
