Thin Rip Jig
Ripping a thin strip on a table saw puts your fingers close to the blade — unless the workpiece is guided by something other than your hand.
Standard push sticks are for wide panels. When you're ripping strips under an inch, they don't keep the workpiece against the fence and they don't give you control over where it goes after the cut. The Thin Rip Jig runs in the miter slot and keeps a fixed, repeatable distance between the fence and the blade — so every strip comes out the same width, and your hand stays away from the blade.
What it does
- Miter slot registration — rides in the table saw's miter slot to maintain a consistent, parallel path relative to the blade throughout the entire cut
- Adjustable fence guide — positions the workpiece at the correct distance from the blade for the strip width you need; set it once and repeat across the full board
- Featherboard pressure — keeps the workpiece pressed against the rip fence throughout the cut without requiring hand pressure near the blade
- Clean, consistent strip width — eliminates the variation that happens when guiding thin stock by hand, even with an experienced operator
How it's built
- Aluminum alloy body — rigid enough to stay in the miter slot without rocking under feeding pressure
- Adjustable position guide — fine-tunes the workpiece position across the range of thin strip widths
- Fits standard miter slots — works with most contractor, hybrid, and cabinet table saws
Who it's for
Woodworkers who regularly produce thin strips for splines, inlay, drawer bottoms, and edge banding. The Thin Rip Jig makes a batch of consistent strips repeatable and safe — a task that's otherwise one of the most hazardous routine cuts in the shop.
Consistent width. Safe distance. Same strip, every time.

Customer Testimonials
Build quality is obvious the second you pick it up.
I've bought a lot of tools online. This is the first time I didn't feel like I was gambling. Solid, precise, no wobble, no play. Does exactly what it says.
The 60-day trial is what convinced me to order.
Used it on a real project for six weeks before deciding. Haven't thought about returning it once. The trial period removes all the risk — that alone tells you they're confident in what they make.
Arrived fast, packaged properly, works perfectly.
No complaints from order to delivery to first use. Packaging was solid, nothing loose inside, tool was ready to go. Simple as it should be.
