mrakaaka – Alos, support bar adjustment or dial on the jig, either/both work.  There is no right/wrong.  Just two ways to adjust.  After a while you'll work out what works best and quickest for you.

Mrakaaka,
I have put together a pdf with photographs showing how to build and use a kenjig. The kenjig is my idea for simply, accurately, and repeatably setting up the knife jigs. It is on the forum somewhere. I can't locate it on the forum. Perhaps someone else can locate it. (Thanks in advance!)

Kenjig is a simple but clever and useful jig/concept invented by Ken.

Where is the pdf link?  The link I see, is in some sort of Doc format. (didn't see a readily available save button)

Original Ken's file exists here only as *.docx, which is MS Word 2013 format.

For your convenience I have exported it to the *.pdf format.

   Thanks, Jan.  I do not have the means of creating a pdf.

[Jan]

Elden, the new MS Word enables the export to pdf format which is very comfortable.

Thanks Jan.

I try to use international standards verses software from a convicted monopolist that won't run on my OS's.

There are free Word viewers for both Mac and Windows.  Search Google to find them.

I don't have a Mac, but I think the Mac OS includes a program called TextEdit that can read Word documents.  If not just find a free one.

Also, on the page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bye-818SN85DdzB3bU9aUU81eTg/view?pref=2&pli=1 move the mouse button just above the top of the document and a download button will appear.  I know, stupid to have disappearing buttons, but that's what they did.

Libreoffice, Open Office, both will do some stuff, but that hidden download button, sucks.  (thought it was an online only Google docs thing)
I've had issues with some Google stuff before, because I don't have an account/email, etc.
And see the prior post about the OSes (Unix, Linux, server stuff).
