I was concerned that these might deflect a bit but they are rock solid and I love the way they just snap into the fence when not in use. My only gripe is that its not practical to attach a tape measure as the only place it can go requires you to lean over the fence to read it which isn't a good idea. I bought the zero clearance blocks as they were inexpensive. I can't believe I'm saying that about a Woodpeckers product. I know they're easy to make but this time I felt lazy.
Highly recommended for those that have a basic mitre gauge or even a better mitre gauge like the V120 and want to take it to a new level.

I noticed the stops are raised up some from the table top, what is the thinnest size material you can cut? Or should I say how much space is there from the stops to the table top?
