The first adjuster was badly corroded and a 1/4" section of the thumb-wheel ribs were dented. Amazon promptly sent a replacement Micro-Adjuster but the thumb-wheel is so tight it can't be turned by hand. I guess I'll tap out and move on.

This is a bit pricy for what amounts to a dial controlled screw, but it does work well.

The fine adjustment actually works although you need to lubricate the knurl wheel contact surface with the frame well otherwise it's hard to turn. I used the lubricant contains ceramic or PTFE which you can easily find in bicycle applications.For a better design, I would see two thrust bearings fitted on both side of the knurl wheel so the fiction with the frame body will be minimised.

Very easy to install and use. I am very impressed with the quality and accuracy of this tool. Band saws can be very hard to dial in and almost impossible to micro adjust. This little gem makes it easy and saves me time!

I mounted the Kreg fence on an older Grizzly 14" bandsaw. It worked out so good this old man was having trouble setting the fence where I needed it it moved so smoothly. So I thought this might help and it did. I can move the fence close by hand and make the small adjustments with the micro adjuster. Worked great for building a 4" long cedar bench for a doll house. Some pieces had to be cut to 1.6 mm x 3mm to fit slot in back rest frame. Works very smooth and easy to adjust if the fence is aligned correctly. And the table is waxed regularity.

Not too bad. Thumb wheel a little small but it works. Attached to my kreg router table fence. It has enough stroke that I can extend it all the way get the fence flust to the outer cutter edge then retract it a few turns each pass until it lines up with the bearing on the cutter when making moldings and other parts I need to align and cut in multiple passes.Do I need it? No, but it’s not expensive and does help so I like it.

It works as advertised. However, to use it has to be clamped to the T-track so it doesn't move with the fence loose. This means that to move the fence by pulling or shoving you have to rotate the knob with finger pressure which might be difficult for some people.

Excellent for those precision cuts where mm’s are measured for a perfect cut. Fully adjustable and very easy to screw into the Kreg fence system.

I purchased the micro adjuster for my Kreg band saw fence. The first issue I encountered was great difficulty in turning the micro adjustment knob. I proceeded to "chase" the threads, use good lubricant, and also adjust the fence rail just ahead of the adjuster. I was able to get it to work with moderate comfort in one direction (shortening the cut width). I could not figure why the locking knob on the micro adjuster contributed to binding and difficulty in using the adjuster. One needs to use light pressure in tightening the locking knob on the adjuster. I did note the micro-adjuster can be utilized on my cross cut saws (table saw sled and miter saw).... It slips into any T track, so adding a threaded "stop" seems like a good idea. Anyway, the idea of this device is excellent--- but needs some improvement. I'd give the idea a 5 star, but the application is a problem. Price and quality are good. Great for those who like tool accessories.EDIT..... Make it 5 stars now..... Problem of difficulty turning adjust knob is due to "binding" between the adjuster and the fence. Fence and adjuster must be in perfect alignment for smooth action (not really likely). The adjust knob binding solved with a 10 in threaded rod 1/4 x 20. Rod is connected to the fence and to the micro adjuster (using a flex coupling at rod-adjuster joint helps). Now works very easy in both directions, no binding. May restrict fence-- requiring shorter threaded rod.

I mounted the micro-adjuster on my Kreg Router table and was very satisfied with the results. I had been trying to adjust my fence by trial and error by hand and was wasting wood with poor cuts but with the micro-adjuster I was able to make fine adjustments and closer cuts with no problem. I should have bought one when I bought my table. This is a very good product and very easy to mount on a Kreg table.

I purchased the Kreg router table top, fence and micro adjuster together to go on a home built base. I've used them for about 3 months now and am really happy with my purchase. The router insert is easily levelled in the table top, the mitre track works great with my shop made coping sled, and the 1/4" guide in the track makes feather board adjustments easy. There are a few plastic parts in the fence assembly, but I had no problems with stripping anything in the kit. The fence is solid and stays square to the table once adjusted as long as you aren't too ham fisted with it. I find that having the fence work like a saw fence is a real asset. I'm not constantly adjusting two sides of the fence every time I want to switch things around. The two plastic rods that you insert for the out feed side of the fence work well for jointing stock. There is also a 1/4" track on the fence to hold feather boards or stops. The micro adjuster is a worthwhile purchase (in my opinion anyway) as it makes it really easy to line the fence with bit bearings using a straight edge, or super fine adjustments for depth of cut. It does seem to keep the fence a little more square when it's pulling the fence back rather than pushing it forward. All together, it is a great addition to my shop.

For the price, it's a good deal, I suppose, but I put performance ahead of price on many items, including this one, where critical cut adjustments are the purpose of the device. This device could be a great deal better, easier to operate smoothly and quickly.It's a fussy little device, as is shown by the other reviews complaining about difficulty in use. One reviewer said that the screw was binding, which caused hard turning of the adjustment wheel. I concur with that opinion. You can't tighten the T-knob on the micro-adjuster much at all. If you do tighten it heavily, it makes operation of the wheel very difficult to impossible. I found that I was able to easily turn the wheel and adjust the fence, by just barely snugging up the micro-adjuster's T-handle. It moved the fence easily that way.Contrary to other reviewers statements, I don't have to completely removed the T-handle to remove the fence with the micro-adjuster attached, on my Rikon 14" Deluxe. I simply slightly loosen everything and slide it off the end of the rail. Perhaps it's saw specific, but I have plenty of room to slide it off the rail on the left and certainly it's easily done on the right, on any saw.As for the 3 star rating, that's due to the fussiness of the device and the fact that it could be a lot better, easier to use in several ways. The wheel should be larger and better marked for fast, effortless operation. Ease of operation shouldn't depend upon the level of tightening used to secure the device in place.I'll probably keep and use the device on the bandsaw, but I won't buy another to use on the router table or other places where such an adjusting tool would be useful. If it were more expensive, I'd return it, but the price is about what it's worth, by my estimate.
