The Magswitch Vertical Featherboard Pro is a magnetic table saw safety attachment that presses the workpiece down against the table as it feeds, preventing thin stock from lifting and reducing kickback. It anchors to ferrous Biesemeyer-style fences between the low-friction guide faces, or anywhere on a steel table top, using switchable magnets with compressible gaskets for grip. The feathers adjust vertically to match stock height, the body reverses for use on either side of the blade, and units interlock so you can add downward pressure before and after the cut. It suits woodworkers cutting thin or flexible material on a steel-fence saw; unlike a clamped featherboard, it needs no track or t-bolt, but it will not hold on aluminum or wood fences.

Owners rate it highly and describe it as a solid, well-built hold-down that sets up fast on steel fences. The main caveats are that it only suits ferrous fences and that the magnets hold firmly enough to need a firm pull to release.
The Magswitch Vertical Featherboard Pro is a table saw safety attachment. It pushes the workpiece down against the table during feeding to prevent ride-up and kickback. It also keeps thin material from bending and lifting off the table, and it keeps the depth of non-through cuts consistent.
It attaches to ferrous Biesemeyer-style table saw fences, between the low-friction guide faces. It can also clamp to the center of a steel table saw fence or at any point on the steel table top. Compressible gaskets grip the surface when the magnets are engaged. The feathers adjust vertically to match the height of the workpiece, and the tool is reversible so it works on either side of the workpiece.
A second Pro Vertical Featherboard can be added to apply downward pressure before and after the saw blade. Multiple tools interlock when downward force is needed at more than one point.
