The world's most versatile
and accurate movable fence for your router
table, drill press, or band saw, gets even
more useful in this system which includes
the leading split fence design, the Wonder
Fence. Designed to meet the needs of the most
serious woodworker yet easy enough for even
a beginner to use. The INCRA LS Super System
has all of the precision and versatility of
our other tools, plus a host of new
features and design details that set it apart
from anything else.

|
|
| This sytem is
the ultimate in precision fence systems for serious
joinery and woodworking fans.The LS stands for Lead
Screw. Our patented Lead Screw technology (U.S.
Patent #5,716,045) makes this unit the leader in
precision positioners for woodworking. Available
in 17", 25" and the NEW 430mm & 635mm
Metric Editions. INCRA LS
Metric Conversion Kits are also available. |
 |
The Lead Screw (LS) Technology
The LS positioner's accuracy
is +/- .002" on the lead screw's 1/32"
increments across its entire range, so it's essentially
perfect even without the built-in micro adjust.
The large micro-adjust knob turns the lead screw
against the mating threads, allowing the fence to
be shifted in .001" steps to tweak the width
of a groove or zero the fence against a router bit. |
|
The fence used for the Standard
Systems is our Pro-II 28" fence, which
features a surface that's machined flat
in a milling machine and a T-slot for adding
fixtures or adding the Incra Wonder Fence
in the future. The Pro-II fence directly
accepts the Shop Stop or INCRA Stop, and
there's also a telescoping extender bar
for stopping grooves being cut into longer
boards. |
|
|
The INCRA Wonder Fence
The Wonder Fence slides
into the front T-slot of the Pro-II joinery
fence, and
|
|
|
it adds adjustability
to accept any size router bit and accommodates zero-
clearance subfences. The Wonder Fence also adds
the ability to very precisely offset the infeed
and outfeed fence halves for edge jointing rough
lumber or setting up for complex moulding jobs like
reversible glue joints.
The LS Super Systems are available with either 17"
or 430mm travel LS units to provide their positioning
accuracy. INCRA's patented lead screw positioning
mechanism allows any woodworker to quickly set the
fence within 1/1,000" (0.025mm) of any desired
position. In woodworking terms, that's accurate
enough to split the line from a sharp pencil into
25 equal parts! And because an INCRA positioner
is mechanical in nature, every fence setup is easily
repeatable with zero error hours or weeks later. |

The
INCRA Master Reference Guide & Template
Library
The Master Reference
Guide provides straightforward instructions
and 51 joinery templates (25 templates in
the metric version) to slide into the positioner
to provide a visual reference for each joint
pattern.
Those templates can produce a mind-boggling
variety of joints - 11 box joint patterns
and 29 dovetail patterns are included (or
9 metric box joints and 16 metric dovetails),
and each one of the dovetail patterns can
be cut half blind, through, sliding, or corner
post.

INCRA Jumbo Right Angle Fixture &
INCRA Shop Stop
Our largest Right Angle
Fixture is included to keep workpieces square
to the fence and square to the table for joinery
operations.
|
|
|
| Instead of the basic
stop block of typical router fences, the included
INCRA Shop Stop is based on our patented incremental
positioning racks to give you unparalleled accuracy
and repeatability when limiting a board's travel
across the router bit or setting the endpoints of
stopped grooves for drawer and box bottoms. |

If you are
new to woodworking, the Incra system reviewed
here is primarily designed as a router table
jig. Incra also makes a similar system that
can be used as a tablesaw rip fence that can
also accept the Wonder Fence
for router operations. The positioner can
and has been used for a multitude of applications
besides these though.
If
you have never used one of these incremental
jigs before, you are in for
a treat. It will only take about five minutes
of operation to conclude they
are the best thing since the invention of
the circular saw blade. The Incra LS Super System
represents one of the major milestones in
modern oodworking accessories. Incra could
justifiably alter the ad line from Dupont
and say "We don't cut the wood,
we allow it to be cut accurately".
