Most of the time it is not an issue cutting thin stock on my table saw useing the rip fence. But every once in a while I cut a piece that is so thin that it wants to slide uner the fence.

But some times when you get to the place on the table that is in open space it will slip under the fence.

This has stoped the problem. The hold down clamps from Rockler work very well

Just a 3/4 piece of plywood with a 1/8 piece of masonite attached to the bottom. Works great for laminates as well as door skin material.:D:thumb:
