JessEm 02302 Review by Western M. Solutions (Portland, OR)

I have a Porter Cable 690 with the three optional handles: plunge, fixed and D..... nothing works as well as this. Simply attaching it to the bottom of a board doesn't work. The 'precision' of twisting the 690, then locking it in does not compare in the slightest with making repeatable 1/125" adjustments!

After making my first long cut, the lift seemed to shift upward, ruining my dado cut! I could not believe it! A few hours later of investigation, I realized it was not this lift, but the 1/4" bit was moving in the collet!
If you own a router, and do any precision work, get this product! Seriously! I teetered back and forth for months, ruining many projects.

I do recommend making your own table and fence however. It was easy, rewarding and likely a higher precision product at any price (mine cost $15 for a discarded office cubicle desk plank)

The savings of making your own table will justify buying an air filter (like I did today)

Thank you to Amazon for allowing us to write these reviews. It is only my 2nd one to write. Our family bases a large value on reviews and this product deserves my accolades.

JessEm 02302 Review by slikshooter

The lift plate is a pleasure to use. I dont know why I held out so long. The MDF template sold by JessEm needs some better
instructions ( Read my review ). Made in Canada, wow! Great quality, wow. Tried to use the provided spanner wrench to place and
remove the table inserts and guess what? It DID NOT FIT. The pins in the spanner wrench were pressed in an angle. Had to open
up the holes in the inserts so I could use the supplied spanner wrench. Guess where that was made, and your first guess is? Our
friends in CHINA have put it to me again. I looked at the bag that it was packaged in and guess what? Made in CHINA!!!!! It's
not that I was surprised but with all the hype about JessEm being made in Canada, and we are machinists and toolmakers, and we
are woodworkers too, and quality comes first, BLA BLA BLA. JessEm should look at the quality control of their subcontractors.
All in all, a really great tool accessory.

This tool looks like and operates like the top of the line lifter sold by Rockler. It is great for us po folk.
