Hi Begat, Legacy does not show the use of feather boards in any of the videos, but later in the newer manuals they show the use of feather boards with the table. They also wrote an article in one of the magazines. When I look back, the real danger zone is when you are trying to cut the edges of the stock. When the board get forced into the fence, or the bit is when bed things are happening. At least that's what I'm thinking at the moment.

I think Mike is onto something. Do you remember the legacy "overhead" router that used wheels as hold downs? I saw it in one the the postings that Curt made. I just took a look at the linear moudling table video. They don't use any special hold down whatsoever, but they do emphasize feeding the stock from the headstock to the tail stock.
