GYRO AIR DUST PROCESSORS

This fence is extremely well built. It was accurate and required no adjustments for the alignment. I installed this fence on a SawStop Industrial model. I did have to drill all new holes as the SawStop's holes are at 22mm below the top surface and the Harvey fence needs it to be a minimum of 26mm. This was a small issue that require drilling holes in the table top accurately. It is very solid and moves freely. I am pleased as punch about this fence. For me it is well worth the money to get this accuracy. I could not notice any deflection with this fence. I look forward to years of fun ripping.

Was not wanting to pay up but so glad I did. This fence is amazingly accurate. Put it on a ridgid saw and it fit perfectly with very lil modification.

First of all, this machine is wonderfully powerful, very smooth, very high-quality in engineering and materials and has proved to be a fantastic addition to my shop. One minor thing is that there is a gauge inside the upper cabinet next to the wheel that shows the tension on the blade. There’s a pointer that moves up and down on a graphic scale. On my machine, it did not work at all. It was not even connected to the tension mechanism. I had to add a spring that pulled up on the pointer arm so that it kept contact with the elevation of the tension device. Now it works well. This was not even mentioned in the instruction booklet. There’s even a little window where you can see this pointer without opening the upper wheel housing. Very odd. Considering how completely well-thought-out this machine is, I wonder why that happened. I also added a work light that is wired to the main switch. Most LED work lights now are dual voltage. I simply ordered one with a strong magnetic base and a gooseneck and removed the plug at the end, stripped and tinned the wires, added heat shrink tubing to toughen the end of the wire and provide a strain relief, and then I opened the switch housing. With the wiring diagram, I found the two wires that output the switched power to the motor and loosened the screws, slid those tinned wire tips inside the terminal clamps and re-tightened the terminal clamps. Using a rat tail file I filed a small groove in the edge of the switch housing and anchored the strain relief on the cable there. I reassembled the switch housing and using magnetic hooks, routed the wire safely to the top of the machine. Now I have a good strong work light that turns on with the motor and turns off as well. This is something I think should have been included in the original design of the machine. It would be simple to add a work light to this machine. All in all, it’s a fantastic machine. The price was reasonable as well. One pro tip for mounting it to the Mobile base they also sell. I use the strips of cardboard under the edges of the machine base that I had previously rubbed with paraffin on their underside. This allowed me to remove the bolts, anchoring the machine to the pallet. It was delivered on and slide it relatively safely, controllably, and easily onto the Mobile base which I lashed to the pallet. This made it possible to transfer a 300+ pound machine onto the mobile pace safely single-handedly. There is no contact of the machine and the mobile base in the process either. It came out perfectly. I’ll include a photo

Setup wasnt very difficult, needed help putting the bolts through when mounting the table, delivery was insanley fast (within a week for me) no issues or complaints. Only suggestion I have is give options for different plugs (like twist lock nema 6-20L) from factory. This machine is very well thought out and gorgeous.

This was the perfect “wingman” for my SawStop!

I had no problem assembling and installing this myself without help. Make sure you get a couple shim stocks (I used .018 x 4 x 9 from Ace Hardware) so that the slide is above your table saw. It still took me several times to get it exact, so make it easy on yourself and get it right.

I have used this everyday and it has made shop life easier. My large panels are effortlessly crosscut with precision! No blade burn or accidental movement throughout the cut.

It is well designed and has an aesthetically appeal. I absolutely love my new Compass and the AH-3T hold down is larger than I expected and that’s a good thing. Harvey did it right!

My only complaint is that the manual doesn’t have any instructions on how to calibrate the flip stops accuracy with the scales. However, I came up with a fail safe way to calibrate it and the repeatability and precision has been maintained ever since.

The entire Harvey system is incredible. I recently added the router wing and fence to my HW110S and it’s better than anticipated. I’ve never used a router fence that’s so rigid, yet smooth moving. It actually keeps perpendicular to the table and has easy and efficient adjustability. Another excellent case of maximizing function and form from the Harvey folks.

This is thoughtfully designed and perfectly engineered. My first task with this was to put an 80" x 23" piece of 3/4" oak ply through the table saw to trim the end square. Once I got the piece locked onto the sliding table it was immovably secured and the cut was made flawlessly and effortlessly.

From the first time I saw this fence I knew I wanted one. It solved all of the issues I had with my old fence and more. The ball-bearing guides are smooth and make fine adjustments so much easier than the old tap,tap,tap...damn! tap,tap,tap...damn! method I used to have to use. Installation was easy and it fit perfect on my Laguna F3. I recommend watching the installation video from Harvey. Rails and fence are well made and feel like they will hold up for years. So far it is well worth the money.

Solid build.
Easy installation.
Only issue was missing nuts for M10 bolts. Not to worry, had some in my shop. Used a 5/8 inch aluminum bar stock shim to avoid having to cut any tubes on my SawStop ICS. Love it. Might be good to include the locking knob from the MG-36 pro miter gauge to secure at dead zero but that is style points.

I'm a 40+ yr commercial carpenter. First,the product. As you can see in the photo the RG-1 is an impressively engineered tool. The other one is for your do-it yourself neighbor.

Second,customer service. I just miss a sale price and email Harvey if they would honor the sale price or if they had any black Friday sales coming up. Mikey Thomas emails back and lowers the price even below the sale price. Great right ? It gets better! I get the product and the tee bar is a bit big for my shapers and table saws. I email Mikey and he says no problem, what size do I need as he will look around. I'm shocked he's doing this because plenty of places will tell you return it or machine it down yourself. If he even found one I'd fully expect to be charged for the tee bar and shipping, right ? Wrong! He finds one / makes one /who knows and sends it free of charge ! In this day and age who goes this sort of thing ? Not many .

Thanks so much for exceptional customer service!!! Sincerely G. Ryan, Minnesota

Ps give Mikey a raise !

I installed the sliding table on my SawStop that I’ve had for about 6 years now. Adding this sliding table was something that I’ve been looking to do for awhile but just really didn’t know if I needed it. Let me say so glad I got it. Very well made and was pretty straight forward attaching it to the left wing of my saw. A few adjustments and we are up and running. Onlya few things I can say I’m not a fan. Removing the fence I wish they could have made easier to do. Also sliding the fence to the left or right could have used some knurled thumb knobs I think to make that easier as well. Other than those 2 items I’m very happy with the sliding table.

great fence fitted well on my grizzly G0771z love how it locks both ends glides so smoothly so accurate customer service was great and very quick highly recommended

I haven’t yet ordered a shaper with a power feed for my shop, so I needed something better than a standard featherboard to keep material pressed tightly against the fence while routing white oak for 5- and 9-foot lock miter beams. After trying just about every major brand featherboard over the past 25 years, the Compass RG-2 excelled where others fell short. If precision matters to you, give this a try.

I bought the dust collection cabinet before I pulled the trigger on the cast iron table. I need to add a third layer to my current table because the router is bottoming out on the cabinet, causing the lift plate to rise up. So I would be happier if the cabinet was about an inch deeper , but it's an easy fix until I upgrade my work surface.

I installed the Bigeye on my franken-craftsman tablesaw - harvey router table to the left, "vintage" cast-iron extensions to the right - replacing a vega fence from 2004. Nothing wrong with the vega, so true to this day, but it was missing a number of the features I was looking for.

It was installed in less than 1 hr (for the most part, more on that later). The hardest part was moving the saw to get to the back. My existing mounting holes lined up without any need to drill, the eccentric bolts sliding in the t-track is a brilliant design!

On my table, the holes in the harvey router table are slightly higher than the cast iron tables on the craftsman, so being able to use different orientations on the bolts was a life-saver. Dialing it in was effortless.

My favorite features include the high-low fence, the stops on the rails, the t-track on the top of the fence, and of course the rear clamping.

The only annoying thing is you can only remove the fence on each end. This is unavoidable given the way the fence slides on bearings in the rail. But, in my small shop that means I can only remove the fence on the far left side forcing me to take lower the blade and remove the splitter, it's trivial, and with 52" to the right, I don't know if I'll ever need to.

The only problem I had was the two set srews on the stops for the scale (one each on two stops) could not be loosened with any standard hex key, it's like they were either stripped or milled for a 2.25mm hex key. They didn't look stripped but no hex key I own (or shipped with the fence) fit tightly enough to loosen the screw.

Harvey's cs came through, sending me replacement stops the same day, but I had to drill and use a screw extractor to remove the faulty stops. Scary on a brand new piece of equipment, especially at this price.

Overall, I love it! The stability of the fence makes ripping large sheet goods far more accurate and scary than my previous fence. Absolutely no deflection.
