Hi everyone

Does anyone have any experience with the The Original Incra Jig? I got an email from Rockler, here is a link to their web page showing the product

The price looks right, however I only have a portable benchdog router table with a relatively small top, don't know if it will support the incra jig,

I have had one since they came out. I have not used this one for years as I have the new style ones that I use all the time. I expect you can mount it on a board and C clamp the board to your router table without any problem. The only downside to the original one in my opinion was the scales had sticky that kept them on the jig. The newer ones slide into a track.

If you are planning on using it for joinery and are getting the package for $99, I would recommend a trip to woodpeck.com to look at the $139 Incra Ultra Lite. Would be $40 well spent IMO.
Either way, the cheaper Incra fences aren't meant as general purpose router table fences. They have very small openings. Some people (including myself) have modified them using Dizzys plan (http://home.pacbell.net/jdismuk/), but things like the wonderfence or jointech fence are nicer.
