5 sold in last 24 hours
- ONE-HANDED QUICK ADJUSTMENT: The patented spiral design features a single pivot knob for lightning-fast setups. Simply drop it into the miter slot, push against the wood, and tighten—saving you time and frustration compared to traditional dual-knob featherboards
- MAXIMIZE SAFETY & PREVENT KICKBACK: Maintain continuous, even pressure against the fence for cleaner, more precise cuts. The engineered polymer body absorbs vibration and stops wood from reversing, keeping your fingers safely away from the blade
- UNIVERSAL 3/4" MITER SLOT FIT: Includes a premium aluminum expanding miter bar that locks securely into any standard 3/4-inch wide by 3/8-inch deep miter slot. (Note: Please measure your slot before purchase; does not fit 5/8-inch slots)
- MULTI-TOOL VERSATILITY: The reversible design works effortlessly for both left-side and right-side feed operations. It is the perfect shop accessory for ripping boards on a table saw, resawing lumber on a bandsaw, or routing edge profiles on a router table
- SHOP-TOUGH DURABILITY: Built to withstand the demands of both professional carpenters and hobbyist makers. The impact-resistant polymer body provides optimal flex and memory, consistently outperforming and outlasting brittle plastic alternatives
- SMOOTH OPERATION: Lower drag compared to EVA foam featherboards

The Hedgehog's Benefits
The Hedgehog featherboard's spiral shape and curved fingers reduce kickback which is when the board is flung back toward your body. The board easily moves in the foward direction but not in the reverse direction.
The Hedgehog featherboard improves safety by pushing the board tight against the fence which helps reduce kickback.
The Hedgehog featherboard is made of toughened engineered DuPont nylon resin for strength and impact resistance.
