Balsa Skew Arrester Completed

Finished cutting out and installing the Balsa Skew Arrester today.  


I could add a few more Tee nuts to allow wider materials to be used, but most of the balsa I will be cutting will range from 3" to 6" in width, so this worked out perfect.


I use an angle square which I got from Home Depot to square up one guide and then butt the balsa up to it and bring the second guide up to the balsa and lock the guides down with the thumb screws.


100% accurate tracking now, so I can now process my Balsa pieces without worry of it skewing out of bounds or misaligning tabs and slots over the 40 inches or so of Balsa.
