Abstract
A combination fence and table for use with a power tool provides means for rotating a plate from a table position to a fence position. The plate also is tiltable with respect to the base of the apparatus. The edge of the plate closest to the power tool remains at a substantially constant distance from the power tool throughout the range of angles that the plate is tilted. When used in the fence position, the plate is movable linearly across the width of the power tool.
