2004 - ALTENDORF NEWS
No more calculating and re-checking measurements:
DUPLEX with dimensional correction.
Anyone who has to cut mitres frequently will welcome the dimensional correction facility that Altendorf now offer for DUPLEX and DUPLEX D mitre fences with an additional length compensation scale. The length of the cut is set manually as a function of the mitre. You therefore no longer need to make fiddly calculations and recheck measurements with a ruler. And since trial cuts can also be dispensed with, you will save not only on time, but on materials too.
